and how did it get there? You cannot remove the paper,
it's a part of the banana stems.

At many plantations, workers will insert paper between each "row" of
growing bananas on the bunch. It helps keep the bananas from becoming
marked and spotted.

Hey! You're back! Hope you had a nice last trip.

It's just nothing I ever saw before, and so weird how
the paper is part of the plant. Thanks for the explanation.
