    Love it!

    Gotta point out that, though, that most primates don’t eat a lot of bananas. The species that really seems to love bananas is homo sapiens. I worked at a grocery store for several years, and saw the sales numbers. Bananas are the biggest seller, and it’s not even close. They outsell whole categories of other products.

      As a banana-hater, I have never felt closer to my fellow great apes.

          That’s a strange question… I guess I accomplish hating bananas by either putting them in my mouth and spitting them out because I hate the taste or passing by some and scrunching up my nose because I hate the smell.

      It’s the only cheap fruit that I can use to make cake if it ripens too much.

      Fun fact: In 1989 the people of Eastern Germany (also known as GDR or DDR) started a revolution because the communist government was unable to provide them with sufficient amounts of bananas.
