I don't consider throwing out food litter but it's still trashy.

I saw a lady throw three drinks out and a McDonald's bag. I pulled up and said "you are too trashy to be in Lexus"
(You could tell she we proud of the car)
She flipped me off, but it was worth it. Women stew on shite like that.

Has anyone here actually slipped on a banana peel before like in a cartoon? I have before... they really are slippery.

When I toss one out, I always try to find it the next day and it is never there.

Why do you feel the need to throw anything out of the window? Put a litter bag in your car for trash and shite. It’s not a different concept to understand.

I was actually eating a banana when I saw this thread. As I often do, I took the peel out in my yard and tossed it behind some shrubs. Quicker than walking to the compost bin.

That said, I would not throw one out the car window or in someone eles's yard. That would be littering, or litering as some call it.

Yes, I got a ticket about 2 years ago.

I was at a stop light and the cop saw me. I tried to argue it but didn't help. $290 banana peel

It seems as though I've littered a fair amount. Had no idea

Don't throw food or food waste on the roads. All it does is invite animals to the roadside to eat.

Interesting standard to set. If I had a big fruit tree whose branches extended to my property line and some of the fruit fell onto my neighbors property am I littering? I'm responsible for the tree, and fruit on the ground is littering apparently...

Engaging in a bona fide agricultural practice is a defense.

I just made that up, but it sounds good.

1st things 1st, learn how to spell peel.

Technically it is.

It's trashy also.

But I wouldn't feel guilty because anything that degrades quickly doesn't hurt in limited quantities.
