    typically an average size banana is 110 - 120 calories. I just go with that and don't worry about it. In the database type in medium banana or search by brand, like dole or del monte, you should get a few results for the whole banana without having to weigh how many grams it is or how many inches it is.

    You can just enter it as a small, medium, or large and be well within a reasonable margin of error.

    Best to have someone measure your banana for you... so you do not over-estimate it for bragging purposes

    Don't worry about measuring it. All banana's are pretty much the same calorie count. Don't get too technicial with the counts, you will get bored with it fast :)

    I agree. Just use medium for entries. The large ones are not as common. It's probably not as long as you think it is anyway.

    Yeah, I figured you were trying to make a funny, but two things we don't joke about here are bananas and nut butter. That's some serious business. Especially when combined.

    I suggest you use your penis; if this is your usual line of conversation, it's probably not getting a lot of use for anything else.

    Hint.. There is a chitchat fun and games section for threads like this.
