Thread: How do you open a banana?

  1. #1

    Default How do you open a banana?

    Im just wondering which end people eat the banana from. I eat it the proper way from the bottom, but my brother and loads of other people eat i from the top.

    Neither, I open mine by twisting it which is more efficient, faster, and is the same with all bananas.

    Check this thread for banana fun.

    Eating it from the bottom is not the "proper" way. There is no "proper" way (how could there be?).

    As for myself, for a period of time I tried using the bottom to open bananas but actually found it harder than opening from the top in general, so I went back to using the top. Never tried twisting it.

    I open from the handle end. Never tried twisting, I'll try it once my parents return from the grocery.

    This is how bananas grow:


    You might have to define "top" and "bottom".

    I used to peel from the handle end, but I found that if I pinch the other end and pull it apart, it's so much easier
