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 ?

 

[Minusorange]

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

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 ?

How are you folks opening your bananas or more specifically, from which end?

According to the experts (monkeys), most of us have got it wrong. Who knew?

From the stem because it's the easiest way to peel it open no ?

 

[Minusorange]

Apparently not. This news to me too but apparently monkeys open from the other end, by pinching the tip to split it, then peeling back.

They also use their feet as additional hands so they are cheats They're effectively half an octopus

i love banana on my pizzas along with tuna ...mmmmm

I love tuna and I love pizza but for some reason it's the most disgusting topping on a pizza

Guys I need your help, everywhere I look online for what is a safe to eat banana seems to refer only to the skin

I don't eat the ******* skin though so how do I know if my banana is too ripe to eat ?

I'll eat the edible part if it's got a bit of browness on it, BUT my current nana it's gone a bit too mushy and brown so I presume it's no longer edible ? It still had yellow parts on the skin though so by normal nana logic it's safe to eat, however the look and feel of the actual nana is off putting so I'm conflicted on whether to bin it or eat it

 

[Minusorange]

Eat the bloody thing and get on with your life. Potassium FTW.

I binned it, didn't want to risk having my weekend ruined by a dodgy nana

 

[Minusorange]

Omg you gave that nana a complex, he's seriously worried about his age now. Your age discrimination is unacceptable

Seriously though, why does all advice online about eating bananas only refer to the skin which nobody eats compared to the actual flesh ?

There's not even any images when you search "off banana" showing the actual flesh, so how are you supposed to know whether your banana is okay or not okay ?

 

[Minusorange]

By judging it on the condition of its skin. If the skin's battered, the nana inside is likely damaged. If the skin is old, the nana inside is by no means fresh

This is what I'm saying it was a 7 on skin

But the flesh was also like a 7 and didn't look too great, but if you use skin condition to judge edibility then it was edible ?
