Fruits get tattooed with labels
Marks & Spencer will trial a laser technology that tattoos labels onto fruit skins
British retailer Marks & Spencer will be testing out a new laser technology for fruit labelling.
Reports said the retailer would start tattooing lasers on oranges first and could be expanded to other produce.
The eco-friendly laser labels would eliminate the stickers growers are left with when design changes happen.

Grocers in Poland, Russia, and France already use the laser label technology.
