We want your help expanding Insider's videos about the environment, climate change, and sustainability. Tell us your thoughts in this 2-3 minute survey: bit.ly/InsiderWWWsurvey Thanks so much!

They should really brand it as "mango leather" rather than "vegan leather". Way more appeal.
-
I'm mad confused with the people who're mad about them using chemicals, like how are you supposed to turn mango into leather mango without chemicals? With your grandma blood?
-
It made me smile when he said "turns out that watermelons are mostly water" 😄
-
But there’s something powerful about working within constraints to make smaller products instead of wanting to expand and grow - love this
-
"Damn, homie, that belt looks NICE. What is it, crocodile? Snakeskin?" "NAH, fam, mango fruit roll-ups"
-
4:00: turns out there's not a lot of fiber in watermelons. Mainly water. Favorite part
-
Leather alternatives are super interesting to me, and I like having options. Elizabeth Cline makes a good point that as long as there’s a beef industry, we should make use of the leather.
-
There is a company in Mexico called Desserto that makes vegan leather from cactus.
-
After he's done chewing on the leather shoes, my dog will love these mango shoes for dessert.
-
Honestly it really upsets me that supermarkets rather throw away their expiring food than give it for free to the people. Most of the food which expired dates is still good to consume, including vegs and fruits. Those should be assessed by the look, smell and touch rather than exact date in the package
-
idk, I usually avoid faux leather made of plastics as much as I can, but fruit based leather sounds super neat. a good way to counter mass waste and a really cool innovation on the creators' parts. as the production gets more efficient, I'm excited to see mango leather more widely used!! ^^
-
They look like perfect mangos to me. I swear the world wastes soooooo much food and other stuff
-
So basically its a resin glazed fruit rollup......
-
2:27 Resin coated. It could be any fiber plastic, which brings us back to the issue of plastic production. We move one problem to another because we cannot accept the idea that a material good can be biodegraded.
-
I believe those mangoes could be eaten by some humans or animals or could have been used for organic fertilizer for crops. Much better uses than a purse.
-
Company as normal: Business is good. Me working there: Hey half our stock is eaten.
-
In southern India, many mangoes are wasted, lots of production of mangoes lead to this situation. Hence these kind of "fruitleather" innovative steps will help the farmers to grow as well..!
-
So its made by mixing mango puree with chemicals and then laminated with resin, so its mostly plastic. Wouldn't that be non-biodegradable and bad for the environment especially the sea?
-
The fact that perfectly edible food is been thrown away is a huge environmental cost in itself. 😭 All in the name of profit.
