I am LOVING eating so much fruit! But I'm struggling with what to do with all the peels and skins of my fruit. I wish I had a compost but I don't because I rent from a couple and don't own the land. I can't go throwing banana peels here and there all over their land. LOL
I don't like having to use plastic bags either to throw it all in the trash. My trash piles up really fast everyday from all the fruit I'm eating.
Any suggestions???

There are a few options available to you, depending on how creative you want to get.
Drop them in a ditch/in the forest. You're giving back to the earth - it'll degrade into the soil and become nutrients for everything around them.
Somebody living nearby you, a restaurant or coffee shop might have a compost you can use (and they'd probably be glad to let you, I know I would)
You can always ask if you can set up a compost bin on their land. Who knows, maybe they'll enjoy the opportunity to give back to the earth and use it as well. It can be as simple as a garbage bin, a large wooden box, a tarp, etc.
There are worms called 'red wrigglers' that, if you create an indoor bin for them, will eat your compost - but a fruitarian would probably need a large number of them to eat all those banana peels; probably not doable.
There's also something called a 'bokashi bucket', which uses a type of microorganism to break down the compost very fast, after which you can toss the contents in the wood/ditch or bury them somewhere.
Honestly though, I'd just load up my backpack, ride my bike somewhere discreet and dump them in a ditch. :)
Compost is gold. With topsoil eroding at an alarming rate, we need every peel!
