Finally!!!

The creator of the Banana Saver has thrust bananas through at least a million years of evolution, providing this protective plastic exoskeleton that doubtlessly saves the banana from the embarrassing bruises that it endures after falling from the tops of banana trees. THANK YOU BANANA SAVER!!!

Banana Trees? Oh shut up!

Banana plants are the largest plants on earth without a woody stem. They are actually giant herbs of the same family as lilies, orchids and palms.

The banana plant reaches its full height of 15 to 30 feet in about one year.

The word 'banan' is Arabic for finger

According to a recent survey amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

A Supermarket in California

     What thoughts I have of you tonight, Walt Whit-
man, for I walked down the sidestreets under the trees
with a headache self-conscious looking at the full moon.
    In my hungry fatigue, and shopping for images,
I went into the neon fruit supermarket, dreaming of
your enumerations!
    What peaches and what penumbras! Whole fam-
ilies shopping at night! Aisles full of husbands! Wives
in the avocados, babies in the tomatoes!--and you,
García Lorca, what were you doing down by the
watermelons?

    I saw you, Walt Whitman, childless, lonely old
grubber, poking among the meats in the refrigerator
and eyeing the grocery boys.
    I heard you asking questions of each: Who killed
the pork chops? What price bananas? Are you my
Angel?
...     
  
    Where are we going, Walt Whitman? The doors
close in an hour. Which way does your beard point
tonight?
    (I touch your book and dream of our odyssey in the
supermarket and feel absurd.)
    Will we walk all night through solitary streets?
The trees add shade to shade, lights out in the houses,
we'll both be lonely.
    Will we stroll dreaming of the lost America of love
past blue automobiles in driveways, home to our silent
cottage?
    Ah, dear father, graybeard, lonely old courage-
teacher, what America did you have when Charon quit
poling his ferry and you got out on a smoking bank
and stood watching the boat disappear on the black
waters of Lethe?

                                  Berkeley 1955

-- Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997)

Why Bananas?

I've found that eating bananas makes my brain work better. It's a subtle but noticeable difference. As bananas became a daily occurrence in my life, other people started talking about their experiences with bananas. Then I began noticing banana imagery everywhere. This blog is exclusively dedicated to bananas. Please feel free to add your own experiences.
