I like bananas.

They have appeal.

I'm so sorry.

I agree with him.

The banana as we know it may be endangered. Take a look (and listen)...

Hallelujah!



In truth, I love them, but some of the threads here drive me bananas.

I'm Chiquita banana and I've come to say,
Bananas have to ripen in a certain way.
When they are fleck'd with brown
and have a golden hue,
Bananas taste the best and are best for you.

You can put them in a salad.
You can put them in a pie-aye.
Any way you want to eat them,
It's impossible to beat them.

But, bananas like the climate of
the very, very tropical equator.
So you should never put bananas
in the refrigerator.

Wow! I would really miss bananas.

I love 'em plain, banana bread, banana cream pie, banana daiquiris, dirty bananas (a drink), banana shakes, banana pudding, peanut butter and banana sandwiches, banana splits, bananas on cereal, etc., etc., etc....

I'm slightly allergic to bananas (they make my throat itch), but I can eat banana chips and banana bread without getting an itchy throat. I think that cooking the bananas kills whatever is in them that causes the allergic reaction. Long live cooked bananas! Wait...cooked bananas are not alive. Oh well. Long live cooked dead bananas!



Banana chips, YUM!

Spina bifida sufferers such as myself have to be aware of certain food allergies, and banana is near the top of the list. There's a compound in certain foods (banana, avocado and tomato are the main offenders, but there are a few others) that, if ingested, could send the person into anaphylactic shock. The interesting thing, and American Nightmare referred to it earlier, is that cooking these foods removes the offending compound, and makes the food safe for me to eat. In the case of banana I'm particularly grateful for this technicality, because my mother makes the most wonderful banana cake!smile

Thanks for the explanation, Michael. That explains why I used to have the same reaction (itchy throat) when I ate avocados, although over the past few years I've been eating guacamole more and more frequently, and as a result I gradually built up a tolerance to avocados, so now they don't affect me anymore. Oddly enough, tomatoes have never bothered me.
