Do you eat the ends of the banana?

Cleisthenes · 28 Apr 2016 at 13:26

Numerous people from my workplace think it's strange that I eat the entirety of the banana. They take off about 2cm from each side, because apparently these bits are hard and nasty (I've never noticed!).

I'm outnumbered, and need to opinions of randomers on the internet.

So please OcUK, share how you eat your bananas.

Remove the black end bit, eat.

Mujja · 28 Apr 2016 at 13:27

I leave just a little bit at the end, don't remove anything from the top unless it's squishy.

We'll have to see a pic of you eating a banana to form a proper opinion.

What black end bit?!

There's no shame in not being able to take the whole banana.

MatsyLR · 28 Apr 2016 at 13:30

Yes.
People dont eat it because those are naturally softer than the rest of the banana once its in your mouth you dont notice anything different though

I just leave the bit at the end. The slightly bitter tasting bit.

I think you work with idiots..I have no opinion on the banana

glenimp617 · 28 Apr 2016 at 13:31

I've seen people do this. Man up, eat the whole banana!

FTM · 28 Apr 2016 at 13:32

would you cut the end 2cm from a baguette or a sausage?

XeNoN89 · 28 Apr 2016 at 13:32

I eat the whole thing unless the end looks obviously dodgy

This. Man up and swallow the banana.

From a baguette yes, the ends are mostly crust and horrible to eat.

tom_e · 28 Apr 2016 at 13:37

I leave the woody stalk bit from the bottom but apart from that I eat it all.

RyanF · 28 Apr 2016 at 13:38

I eat the whole banana. But I refuse to eat the weird, stringy bits - I'm not a savage.

If you dont like crust, then you are eating the wrong kind of bread

Real men eat the skin as well

Note: I am not a real man
Note: I eat all of it unless its over ripe or bruised into a mush
Note: You work with some strange people, do they eat KitKat's or Jaffa cakes in specific ways too...

Yes of course.

Yes you eat the entirety, or yes you remove the ends?
