So yeah, I'm curious as to what people consider as the "right" way to peel a banana. I peel from the black end of the banana.

Not sure why I do it, but I relate more to how mario kart and super smash brothers depict a peeled banana.

I don't see how you could peel it from anywhere but the top... Anything else just seems... unnatural.

That's only in video games. :\

In real life, stem end first!

I can't think of anything to write here.
----------------------------
Yeah, you are supposed to break the thing at the top and peel it or something.

And I always thought the bananas in mario kart were like squashed or something.

The stem. There doesn't really seem to be a better place to peel it.

Quite honestly, I find it easier to peel from the black end (bottom). I'm not sure why, I just...do. I've been doing so for a good several years now.

I peel it from the bottom because I'm weird used to doing it that way. I've done it that way all of my life, so I don't see any reason for stopping now.
Of course, I rarely even eat bananas these days, so... Yeah.

You can peel them from the bottom? Really?

I've never seen someone doing that before, but if you guys say it's possible then I'll believe you


(For me, it's breaking the stem thing and so on)

Using the stem is hard a lot so I stick to breaking it in half and going from there.

I don't eat bananas, therefore I don't peel bananas.

I don't really like bananas.

In fact, the only fruit I can really tolerate is oranges, and my family doesn't get oranges that much.

I don't eat bananas often.

The few times that I do, though, I peel from the stem.

Where's the "ewwwww, bananas" option?

(strangely enough, my mom says I loved bananas when I was very young...)

DEFRIENDED


(Liking things years ago isn't surprising though, I was told of a few too)

..

I never replied to this? Wow. Uh, I peel them from the stem. Though with my luck (and complete lack of dexterity), I usually end up creating mush.

I usually just break the stem off and peel everything else away before eating...but sometimes instead of my hand I use my canine. Leaves a bad taste in the mouth almost all the time.
