tep it;s on wiki too.
This regulation requires that bananas of the highest quality classification not have "abnormal curvature",[5] something that led to various stories ab out an EU ban on either curved[6] or excessively curved[7][8] bananas.
For me it seems that the brexiteers are correct but over exagerating the pr oblem which was really aimed at the growers and distributers of green banan as.
if not then explin the following. Provisions
The regulation applies to unripened green bananas, and thus to growers and wholesalers rather than retailers.[3] The main provisions of the regulation were that bananas sold as unripened, green bananas should be green and unr ipened, firm and intact, fit for human consumption, not "affected by rottin g", clean, free of pests and damage from pests, free from deformation or ab normal curvature, free from bruising, free of any foreign smell or taste.[1 ] The minimum size (with tolerances and exceptions) is a length of 14 cm an d a thickness (grade) of 2.7 cm. It specifies minimum standards for specifi c quality classifications of bananas (Extra, Class I, Class II).[1] Only Ex tra class bananas have to comply fully with the shape specifications. Class II bananas, for instance are permitted to have "defects of shape"; Class I bananas are permitted only "slight defects of shape".[1][4] This is not tr ue, however, of the size specifications; sale of bananas below the minimum size is almost always prohibited (with exceptions only for bananas from a f ew regions where bananas are traditionally smaller).[1]
