    That is a bad entry in the food database. The database is user-sourced, so there are A LOT of incorrect entries.
    The brand of banana doesn't matter, so just look up a generic banana instead of using the brand name.

    Ideally, you should weigh the edible portion and find an entry that lets you log it in grams.
    But, if you are just estimating, most bananas are anywhere from 100-150 calories each. Depends on the size, though.
