As an italian, I am absolutely ashamed by this absurd waste of food. Shame on them.
I was thinking that!
Another one here who think the same as you. Una vergogna.
@Fearless9586 think the same as you?
ma in che razza di inglese scrivi? 😬😬😬
io invece di essere fearless comincerei a preoccuparmi , se fossi al tuo posto , eh? 😬😬😬
It’s rotting fruit.. off the ground..
😂
Completely idiotic and disgusting. I hope no one is hitting the poor horses, they don’t have much of a say in this!
What a waste! Oranges are so expensive
I suppose they must be cheap over there. Like when the Spaniards celebrate the Tomato Harvest and throw them at each other in the street.
Why? What a waste of healthy food 😮
I am astounded. Why can’t it be the battle of the GRAPES or something!? Also, those oranges are the size of grapefruit!!
Exactly what I thought
🤔 Why ???
That could’ve helped so many people !
World needs that food!
No they don’t.. it was rotting fruit from the ground
The world needs fewer people.
@P Holdway Start with yourself then. Bye.
Fun, and a waste of food, all at the same time. Let’s file this under “unnecessary “
With all the hungry people in the world and Ukraine you’re throwing food at each other bus and each other’s eyes open in this foolishness what the hell is the world coming to
Thank god I’m not the only one who thought of the tremendous waste of food
FFS it was rotting fruit off the ground..
Madness. In Russia that’s impossible.
Battle of the Oranges, La Tomatina, etc. How many disgusting food-wasting “traditions” are there? 🤨 I literally just got bought oranges and tomatoes today and knowing that some people waste them where I have to spend money on it is infuriating. 😠 Just because something is a “tradition”, doesn’t mean it has to continue. Slavery was a tradition. Child-marriage was a tradition. 😒 Maybe it’s time to stop doing stupid things for ridiculous excuses.
I concur 👍🏾
AMEN 🙏
I don’t take joy in this blatant waste of food. There are so many people who would love to have just one of these oranges to eat.
lots of fruit gets frost damage and isn’t even picked..
It would be nice to have a whole bunch of oranges. I’m craving oranges now. 🍊
I’d love to do this
I have never expected that Italy were that wealthy
The food banks are probably mad at all you wasting oranges like that.
All joking aside. WHY? JUST WHY?
Shameful with the high cost of food fruit and vegetables ! They throw it away for fun ! Unbelievable 😢
Wow, so very wasteful, especially with high inflation/cost of living.
Shame on everyone who participated in this stupid event…. Please don’t be offended…. I don’t mean no disrespect…..
