POLL: Bannanas

“Slightly green
yellow
yellow with freckles
brown

Which do you prefer?”

“yellow”

“slightly green!”

“I prefer my bananas with only two "n"s”

“yellow, yellow with freckles.

What are your plans with this research?”

“I'm sorry sass, but you are only allowed to choose one answer.”

“Oh, now it's a banana dilemma!




But, really there's a purpose for bananas in all their stages. I wouldn't use anything but brown for bread, while yellow is best for cereal and yellow with freckles is best for eating. And green is best for Birch.

Say, did you all know if you break your bunch up they ripen slower?”

“Yellow...........

..............with ice cream and whipped cream.”

“no chocolate syrup?!”

“I didn't want to get too carried away.”

“In a bread.”

“If there not green there rotten.

green = eating
anything else = bread or muffins”

“I hear ya conk! I can't stand em when they get yellow and spotted, ick!”

“Send me your spotty bananas; that's when they get smooshy and sweet! Very nice on whole wheat toast with PB.”

“I love bananas but I eat them very rarely.

When I do, I prefer them either yellow or yellow with freckles.”

“There was a guy on public radio the other day who'd written a book on bananas.

Item 1:   Keep them in the refrigerator like any other fruit.   The banana distibutors say to keep them out so they'll rot faster and you'll have to buy more.

Item 2:   The "Chiquita" marketing was originally developed by the United Fruit Company (the Dulles brothers and all that crap in Central America).

As you were ---

“I'll take a banana over a bandana any day.

B-A-N-A-N-A-S”

“foster”

“greenish”

“they won't ripen in the fridge and most are on the green side when you buy them. put them in the fridge one they get where you want them... but in my house with my appetite for the things and that of my three kids they just don't last that long even on the counter.”

“Also..... the venerable Cavendish is under assault from the Panama fungus.”

Can This Fruit Be Saved?

The banana as we know it is on a crash course toward extinction. For scientists, the battle to resuscitate the world’s favorite fruit has begun ---- a race against time that just may be too late to win.

“Yellow to yellow with freckles. I like my fruit ripe, but not spoiled.”

“THe bananas we grew in Florida were a different variety...the flesh was much softer but extremely aromatic when properly ripe. THey also made excellent ersatz platanos when fried while still green.”

“plantain?”

“man, I just can't stop eattin' bananas lately!”

“I am with Chili...Fosters”

“anyone ever been to Africa? I herd in some parts they use banannas like we use Potatoes and bread. And what do they call the little RED bannanas that you find in South America?
