The EU laws on bent bananas and curved cucumbers are not an urban myth, but sheer reality.
They were repealed due to public uproar.
From Newser.com December 2008
"The EU took a U-turn on curved cucumbers and bent bananas and voted to repeal strict laws that ban the sale of imperfect produce, the Washington Post reports. Shops are barred from selling cauliflower less than 4.33 inches in diameter and not-green-enough asparagus until July, when such laws—long mocked by the British tabloids—will be wiped for 26 fruits and vegetables."
