Dole Japan, leading the “Mottainai Banana” project, has introduced banana charcoal to combat food waste. The charcoal, inspired by a Philippine practice, is lighter and easier to ignite than typical charcoal, making it suitable for barbecues. Dole Japan plans to expand sales and develop new products using banana charcoal.

Noooooooo all the wasted opportunities for banana bread!!!!!
If the bananas are fine to eat but just look weird why not peel and mash them for use in other foods? Turning them into charcoal should be the last thing you try when everything else fails.
This… isn’t a flex
