How do you prefer your bananas?

[Al B. Sure!]

For comparison, a standard 1.67 oz bag of chocolate M&M's has 23.9 grams of sugar. A typical 1.75 oz Mr. Goodbar has 23g of sugar. A medium banana at 17g is pretty sweet enough, don't you think?

So you just coat the banana in brown sugar and pan-fry it? When is it done?

[Egbert]

I didn't just decide. I was so taken aback by it that I did research and apparently, there's entire websites devoted to the 'correct' way of opening a banana, as he did. It's also the way monkeys do it and while normally doing something like a monkey is a negative association, monkeys probably do know the best way of opening a banana.

There is much to be said for the way monkeys "do it". I suggest experimentation.

I don't think I have ever witnessed monkey intercourse but I imagine they hit it from the back, right?

The variety known locally as tundan are very sweet, and I like to eat them plain. This is the type I usually have.

There's another type who's name I forget that are used fried with brown sugar. They aren't nearly as sweet on their own. Combined with the sugar it's delicious.

There's 10 other varieties of bananas here. Some taste almost like potatoes when cooked. Others are even sweeter than tundan (but sickly so, I don't like it)

US supermarket bananas are absolutely tasteless crap in comparison to any of the above. (Even compared to the Lakatan, which is the same variety.)

I have no interest in all these facts and measures and so forth. I shall continue to sprinkle sugar on thinly sliced bananas. Ignorance is bliss.

No, you dumb ass. They swing from a chandelier.

Ignorance is bliss til you get Diabetes and what not (call back to the other thread) It's for your own good, Braindead

Yeah but bananas are radioactive too. (I read that in another thread so I am repeating it here as truth). That hasn't made me wear a Nuclear-Chemical_biological warfare suit when I eat a banana. I might die of radiation or turn into a mutated ninja monster and rampage through Philadelphia. Meanwhile, ignorance is bliss.

No, you dumb ass. They swing from a chandelier.

If you must know, I saw a video on youtube of some chimps going at it from many different positions. Apparently, chimps do different things.

[Egbert]

Humans can only do it swinging from chandeliers, can't be done without at least one chandelier.
That's why we had to invent the chandelier.
Monkeys are more versatile.

If you don't believe me, try it without a chandelier. Purely as a scientific experiment of course, to see if its possible and all that.

[SlowwHand]

They were on the verge of extinction.

Maybe not literally as a pure cause and effect relationship but eating a whole lot of sugar and therefore getting all fat most definitely increases your risk of getting Type 2 Diabetes. Plus a lot of sugar probably doesn't do any favors for your insulin sensitivity.

This whole business of putting sugar on sweet fruit is bizarre

Raw bananas btw. Sometimes with evaporated milk.
