Let me add another banana fact: "It is easier to peel a banana from the other end". When I heard this I tried it. And it is. So I'm not sure why we all intuitively break it open at the "attachment" end. Must just be a case of monkey see and monkey do.
Probably because the "attachment" end is easier to "break open" and start</strong?peeling, hmmm? That's an obvious case of Short Term Benefit overruling Long Term Benefit.
Yeah, I'm gonna miss the Cavendish banana when it goes away (probably in 5-10 years, according to some alarmist articles I read previously). I suspect there are scientists working at Dole or Chiquita right now on creating the Future Banana (and one they can claim exclusive rights to... I just hope Monsanto doesn't bring one to market first).
Bananas don't just come in yellow, you know.
Pink bananas!
I lubs me some bananas with my granola.
and walnuts, and grapes, and sunflower seeds, and peaches and...
a glow-in-the-dark
banana may seem extreme
but we could follow a banana-bearer
at night by the gleam
*waves fond farewell
to the Gros Michel*
