Yeah, I read that too, Jim.  After a 20yr ban, they've been 'allowed' back on sale.  LOL!

And about time as well, like one lady said on the news...........we eat ours from the ground all shaped funny......I hate to think how much has been thrown away because things were the wrong size or mishapen.

Oh I know they went to the food factories, but now we can benefit from cheaper produce too ;)

Whoever said they were going to be cheaper?  When they were "illegal" (I've often wondered about the legality of the claims of these outrageous EU laws - no one has ever said which specific law it was) they were either thrown away, or sold cheaply as poor quality.  Now that they are "legal" there is no reason to do this.
