Did You Know – Banana

Do you ever try to peel a banana from the stem and it won’t break in two?
I hate it when I can’t pull it apart and it gets all mushy on the end.

The trick to getting the banana peeled is to peel it from the opposite end.
Pinch the end, pull back and peel.
This also removes most of the stringy parts.

Thank you Michael! I wish I could bring up your blog, I think I did 1 or 2 times but that was it.
Will have to share this trick with T. He love: his bananas!
Tell him the primates do this in the wild. That was actually where I learned of it for the first time. Then I had a stem that was still a little green and it wouldn’t break so I peeled the bottom, so simple!
A very handy tip.
Thank you Bernadette!
presume you meant “stringy”
Yes!!!! Thank you and fixed! Now I know you read all of my blog. 😂
So smart!!👏

Thank you Mitzy! 💕
Smart trick! Thank you for sharing, Diane.
Thank you and you’re welcome!
Guess what? I’ve tried this before and it really works … and I have only done it out of curiosity 😄.
I saw a primate do it on a nature show I watched years ago and decided to try it. It worked so well I do it most of the time now.
You know, I was saying to my sister the other day that bananas don’t peel as easily as they used to. The stem used to pop, and presto, you could peel the fruit easily. Now, it just sort of beds. I will definitely give this a try.
Yes I think it’s because they are so green when they ship them. The stem end turns to mush when it won’t snap open. The other end always works.
That is sooooo helpful to know that, Diane! Thank you! 🙂
You’re very welcome Anita. 💕
Thank you so much for reblogging!
Wow!!! I’m going to try that!! Thank you!
It’s one of those things we have done one way our entire lives and never even thought about. I saw a primate on a nature show do it and I thought “well that makes sense!” Lol
Oh my gosh, that’s funny. And, smart!
Great trick!
Thank you!
I’ll give that a try. Thanks for the tip.
You’re welcome❣️
Oh. When I saw this one I thought you were calling me a banana.
Good idea for banana eaters. Really, I always peel it the other way, from the stem. From now on though…
I will let that banana comment go! 🤣😂🤣 However, if you get one that won’t peel easily from the stem, flip it around and see what I am talking about.
Yes I learned this by chance a while ago and it makes bananas so much easier to peel!
It sure does, thank you Tierney! I am having trouble signing in to comment on your post. What a fun trip you had!
I did, thanks!
Isn’t this just the coolest thing?
Thanks for subscribing to my blog, by the way.
Thank you and you’re very welcome!
Good to know, although I’m food sensitive to bananas and can no longer enjoy them.
Oh no! I eat one every day to get my medicine down.
Interesting and I will do this as I hate those stringy things and mushy bananas.
Me too Linda!
It never occurred to me 😊. Thanks
I love how it removes most of the stringy things. Lol You’re welcome Tangie!
