Guess who just casually strolled by us in the office? An Organic Banana! We couldn't believe it, but it happened. He eventually sat down with us for a quick one on one and told us what life is like for him. It's a great story.
Hey Organic Banana, it's so nice to see you!
Yeah, I love you guys at EatAChiquita.com. It's been a while huh?
Yes it has. I think the last time we saw you was at Burning Man last year?
Oh Burning Man was great. I love big gatherings of people who come together for a common goal. I couldn't go this year though, because it's National Organic Month and I have some public appearances to make. I'm going to be the host of a big special on the award winning Fruitz Network, promoting my organic bunch, so it's pretty exciting. I've got a bunch of red carpets to go to for promoting the special.
Oh, that's so cool! What are you going to wear?
Nothing fancy. I like the natural look, so I'll probably wear a muted suit made out of hemp fabric, or possibly bamboo.
That sounds neat. Can you tell us what sets you apart from other kinds of fruit?
Other than my laid back attitude? I'm grown naturally in fertilizers like manure and seaweed, which are totally healthy. And the guys who farm me do it by hand, usually with machetes, which are kinda cool. They keep weeds off me with mulch, or sometimes they even just use their own hands to get rid of weeds. So I'm just a totally natural guy, and 100% good for you.
That's awesome! Where can people find you, if they don't already know?
Well I should be available at all times at your local grocery store. I'd be pretty shocked if in 2010 you couldn't find me! In the crazy chance that you can't find me at your local grocer, just ask them to stock up on Chiquita Organic Bananas. They would be more than happy to, I'm sure.
Thanks Organic Banana. We're so happy we got to see you. What's coming next for you?
Well, after all this TV promotion stuff is over, I am thinking about backpacking through the Himalayas. Don't worry though, I'll always be available to you.
