Peel from the bottom, not the top. Works like a charm, never snaps off, and better gets rid of those yucky stringy parts.

For those of you who hoped this would have pornographic content, shame on you.

    I slice mine in half lengthwise, open into two parts, then cut into bite sized pieces.

    I thought you'd discovered Banana Girl!

    http://thebananagirl.com/

    She started with the "30 Bananas A Day"--although nowadays she's moderated a bit, and "only" eats 30 dates for breakfast, 10 mangos + 3 pineapples for lunch, and 5 dates + 5 bananas for dinner.

    The surprise? She's slender and fit!

    You can also cut the banana in half with the peel still on and then eat the insides with a spoon.

    Very nice. That appeals to my compulsively organized side!

    I've been peeling them this way ever since I was told that this is how monkey's peel them. It's so much easier! They are great sliced up with a drizzle of honey and a sprinkle of cinnamon!

    I've always done it this way. It's how monkeys do it.

    Someone told me that is actually how apes peel 'em.

    So the goal is to have a taut peel. I can get behind that.

    This works especially well if you like green bananas. The green bananas can be near impossible to break open at the stem but you can peel from the bottom with no issues. That's how apes do it too!

    You can also break it open in the middle and smush the two halves into your mouth if you're worried about looking like a sissy while eating a banana... Cuz you know real men can't be caught eating bananas...

    To think, they've been ahead of us all this time! It seems we are evolving backwards. Which I basically knew, given Ed Hardy shirts.

    I fell in love with my first boyfriend for his banana ingestion. The testosterone was pouring off him.

    (good tip about the green ones!)

    This thread is SO RAD! Seriously, I never knew.

    Broiled, too; brown sugar works nicely!

    That's the stuff. Needs more hair on his chest, though. Like, circa 1970's Burt Reynolds hair.

    Meh, just have your butler peel your bananas like I do. If they're not to your liking feel free to chastise him. That's what he's paid for.

    Or have him load up your feedbag, at least.

    I am appalled. Everyone knows that's strictly a redhead thing.
