Probably better, because banana skins should not be discarded to decompose in the wild even though many cyclists do, but apple cores are essentially native and no problems returning to the soil.
I agree, after finishing long and hard rides I've sometimes thought to myself that some of the other cyclists in the room look as though they have started to decompose ...
You should speak to organisers at the finish. We see the complete spectrum of rider states at the finish. Some who at first glance look okay, if tired, need help with basic stuff. Not all dictated by arrival time. Some arrive full value in pretty good shape, and go get a pint first, cool as a cat, some arrive somewhat earlier but wasted and needing a few moments before interacting. The fun part it matching up how I usually feel and must look at the end of events I ride to what I see in front of me.
