Default How do you prefer your bananas?
I knew a guy that opened his bananas backwards. Not from the stem side but from the bottom side. It was so weird but apparently, that's the better way to do it.

I like banana milk shakes. I don't think that's as odd as deciding that the only guy that I ever met in my life that peeled a banana backwards was actually correct.

I didn't just decide. I was so taken aback by it that I did research and apparently, there's entire websites devoted to the 'correct' way of opening a banana, as he did. It's also the way monkeys do it and while normally doing something like a monkey is a negative association, monkeys probably do know the best way of opening a banana.

What's with the sugar on a banana? It's not naturally sweet enough? The average banana has 17 grams of sugar.

This whole business of putting sugar on sweet fruit is bizarre

For comparison, a standard 1.67 oz bag of chocolate M&M's has 23.9 grams of sugar. A typical 1.75 oz Mr. Goodbar has 23g of sugar. A medium banana at 17g is pretty sweet enough, don't you think?

There is much to be said for the way monkeys "do it". I suggest experimentation.

The variety known locally as tundan are very sweet, and I like to eat them plain. This is the type I usually have.

There's another type who's name I forget that are used fried with brown sugar. They aren't nearly as sweet on their own. Combined with the sugar it's delicious.

There's 10 other varieties of bananas here. Some taste almost like potatoes when cooked. Others are even sweeter than tundan (but sickly so, I don't like it)

US supermarket bananas are absolutely tasteless crap in comparison to any of the above. (Even compared to the Lakatan, which is the same variety.)

I don't think I have ever witnessed monkey intercourse but I imagine they hit it from the back, right?
No, you dumb ass. They swing from a chandelier.

Yeah but bananas are radioactive too. (I read that in another thread so I am repeating it here as truth). That hasn't made me wear a Nuclear-Chemical_biological warfare suit when I eat a banana. I might die of radiation or turn into a mutated ninja monster and rampage through Philadelphia. Meanwhile, ignorance is bliss.

Humans can only do it swinging from chandeliers, can't be done without at least one chandelier.
That's why we had to invent the chandelier.
Monkeys are more versatile.

If you don't believe me, try it without a chandelier. Purely as a scientific experiment of course, to see if its possible and all that.

Banana Bread. Or even sliced on cereal.
