Poll: Poll: Bananas

[Minusorange]

I seem to find conflicting information on these genetically modified freaks of nature

Some seem to say it's best to wait for Banana to have brown spots on skin and that dark patches on the flesh are fine for consumption

Others say it's not safe for consumption

Usually if I see dark patches I eat around but apparently the dark parts are the best (sweetest) parts of a banana

So now I'm confused as it seems natural instinct to avoid the dark colour but I'm curious to move over to the dark side and embrace it

What does GD do when it comes to bananas ?

 

[JBuk]

I don’t eat the black bits , if instinct tells you not to eat it then don’t

Slice them up and feed them to the dogs.
I buy them, but always forget that the wife hates bananas, so I eat what I can while they're somewhere between green and brown, but usually the dogs get a quarter of each bunch.

 

[Malevolence]

I eat a hell of a lot of bananas. Sliced into custard, milkshakes, banana cake, smoothies, ice-cream et al. I generally prefer to eat them 'raw' when they're around 4(ish), but will usually eat them in any state of ripeness.

 

[Diddums]

Bananas are radioactive.

 

[Kronos]

Banana sandwiches, yum yum.

 

[VincentHanna]

I'm more of a 5 and 6er, but I will happily eat a 7.

 

[JBuk]

7 is the tastiest as long as it’s only the skin that is blackened

 

[Yadda]

Banana sandwiches, yum yum.

Oh yes, Banarnies, delish!

Any that go too ripe to eat end up being mashed and mixed with sweet chilli sauce and hot chilli sauce for a tasty chicken wing dip.

 

[Hyburnate]

6 or 7 for me

 

[Ahleckz]

I’m a two or three. Bananas should have a chew.

In all my years of eating bananas I've never seen a 7 that doesn't have some darkening on the flesh

I've currently got a 6.5 and even that has some darkness

Banana sandwiches, yum yum.

Why not make banana bread ?

 

[The_Abyss]

4 onwards. 7 is where the taste is. I'd even go to 8 or 9 if only the scale would.

Yup. Bit of a chew but not so that it doesn't taste of banana. 4 if i'm not being fussy.

Bananas are radioactive.

'The radiation exposure from consuming a banana is approximately 1% of the average daily exposure to radiation'
Banana equivalent dose (BED)

My father had a banana sandwich for breakfast every day, he died at the age of 59, but not of radiation poisoning.

Best eaten when they are around a 12. Yuk!

 

[Megahurtz400]

It's all personal preference really.

I'm more of a 4-7 man, and if you like a 1, that's fine, but there's a very good chance you're in Boko Haram....

5 and 6.

I will eat 4 or 7 if I am hungry and can't wait or it needs to be eaten.

For making ice cream or baking….it's best to be like level 11 !

I made a banana bread yesterday with bananas which I bought about two weeks ago

It's all about the flavour.
