Hymer C 9. Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Sitting at the tea table tonight Ed informed me thats it I am not eating any more banana's - now after a banana every night for the past 40 years that is quite a statement. Apparently the skins are to thick, there is no taste in them, they have no black bits up the middle in fact his evening banana is a huge disappointment so no more banana's. Is he alone in this or have banana's been got at. Carol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J9withdogs Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Aww.. what a shame, Carol. Have you tried the 'fun-size' ones from Sainsbury's aimed at the kiddies' lunchboxes? They are lovely and sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tracker Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 If the skin is too thick he could always try peeling them first before eating them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordThornber Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Helo Carol, has Ed ever gone East? If not, do so at once and experience RED bananas. I'm not kidding you, red. We saw them first in Sri Lanka, and it was an eye rubbing moment I can tell you. Very nice tasting too. Martyn, (not gone bananas) :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopesy Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Probably not the right amount of bend or curviture in them anymore either *-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROON Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I put this on once before so apologies for repeating it in case someone missed it. My friend was a manager in a banana factory and he said you shouldn't eat the bottom half inch of a banana cos there are insects which inject into them and lay their eggs there. So if ever the last bit of the banana was a bit crunchy you know why. Last week one of my friends from down South phoned to say she was eating a banana and a long red centipedey type thing was inside the banana skin in that stringy bit 8-) :-| Rnjoy! >:-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J9withdogs Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Oh thanks for that, Joy - you could have posted that BEFORE I just ate my banana (complete with crunchy bits) >:-( :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
