Some places do unwrapped and I think it’s slowly getting more ccommon. There was a survey at some point where the majority said they think we should reduce plastic, including on fruit and veg, to help the environment. The unwrapped proceeded to sell worse.
Bananas are the epitome of wasteful wrapping for me. I don’t think there’s any other food with as thick a skin that gets wrapped here. At least with like tomatoes or lettuce you’re eating the “exposed” parts directly, so even though it’s still a waste I can sort of squint and see the Japanese logic behind it.
My local grocery store also does single bagged limes, which also annoys me.
