Just for Fun A piece of trivia

[carolinamtne]

Have you ever struggled to peel a banana from the stem? Someone told me that monkeys do it from the other end. Just pinch the stub with your thumb nail, and voila!

Yup! But it's hard to break the habit of doing it from the stem end! LOL

Until you've struggled with it for five minutes!

LOL That's true! Just use a knife and cut halfway through!

But we're humans, not monkeys! We like to make things complicated and do things the hard way.

 

[carolinamtne]

For sure!

Bananas? No! Getting to the meat of a black walnut? HEEEEELP!
The only "monkey" that could make that easy would be "King Kong"!
'just sayin'....

If it's a banana, I'm getting in. Same with a nut, like myself..
I just pull the stem straight out. I guess I'm as strong as an average monkey.. maybe not as wise.
For the walnut, get a bigger hammer.. if you don't mind sifting.

Black walnut shells would make excellent Wonder Woman bullet repelling bracelets. Hammers? Hmmmmm......

The stem is the handle to make it easier to hold while you eat! Not a tear-open tab!

If i'm going to disect half of the peel, incise the entire length, and pack it with peanut butter and honey, the 'handle' may be insufficient..

HMMMMMMM.....I'm starting to think that this "trivia" is driving some members "bananas"!

At that point you just need a spoon to eat it with instead of worrying about the banana peel and handle.
Now you're making me hungry...
