Banana peeling

[SL4MT 51]

I peel mine from end A so I don't have to eat that ungodly nub of evil at the end of the banana.

I laughed way too hard at that XD

End B.

Obviously, its way more easier than End A.  :grin2:

[Unikitty 1,212]

Neither. I hold the banana and pull on A until the whole thing just kinda bends and all hell breaks loose in a mushy banana-smelling fashion. I then proceed to cry myself to sleep upon the realisation that I cannot achieve what even my more primitive cousins have mastered.

That or I use my human intellect to utilise a cutting tool to assist. Of which I then proceed to mock said primitive cousins for their lack of adept cutlery skills.

End A.

Didn't know we could peel it from end B.

Are b-peelers really a minority? I thought most people opened their bananas from that end :<

I peel from end a but next time I'm going to peel from end b.  End b peeling looks much easier.

Always have just snapped off the (a part) and then peeled it from there.

[Thorn O Discord 118]

Always side C, what are y'all, animals?!

[VitalSpark 1,830]

I just devour them whole.

[IcyHaze 595]

End A - I only found out recently that end B is apparently better. gonna start doing that now

[Sceethe 704]

B, of course.

Everyone knows that that is the pro way to do it.

[The Pink One 595]

End B ... because it works. End A just takes longer and messes the banana up at the end ...

[Tameless 979]

I peel mine from point A.

 

Haven't had a banana in forever..

[Lunia 332]

I used to peel mine from point A, but then after I did point B it was way much easier and the banana wasn't destroyed after I was done peeling it! 

[Creamy Arty 6,252]

How I peel it depends on the ripeness of the banana. If it's closer to being under-ripe, like barely turning from green to yellow, then I'll go with side A. If it's been around for a while and it's too soft for that without destroying the banana itself, I'll go with side B.

end B, so much easier, and the peel looks better this way afterward.. like it looks like a mario kart or DK banana.. yah lol

[BlackWater627 700]

End A. I used to go from B but then I thought "No, this is too easy. Life should be challenging!"

 

...and then I broke the banana in half with my bare hands and ate from each end. It was an epic day, I must say.

I peel from end B, it's a lot easier and the stringy things doesnt stay which is nice 

[Cash In 22,722]

I always peel it from end A. I never knew that some people actively do it from the opposite side. The more you know.

[Dreambiscuit 10,578]

End A, obviously. It has a natural handle right there to get you started. It might as well have a sign that says, "Open Here."

[ZiggWheelsManning 11,886]

Peeling only at the top.  

[Nitobit 1,976]

As a banana connosuer connosier connoisseur, with over two decades of experience in eating bananas, I can confirm that the proper answer is B.

The A side is merely a distraction used to separate bananoobs from banamasters 

[Samurai Equine 53,271]

As a kid, I peeled from the stem end (A). It's how my mother did it, so it's how I did it. Never thought anything about it. 

Then as an adult, I learned a lot of people (especially in different parts of the world) were peeling from the butt end (B), claiming that's how you're suppose to do it if you don't want to accidentally bruise the banana when tugging on the stem. So I shrugged and started doing it that way. 

Then yesterday, I saw a gorilla open it from the middle and then eat it that way. You know what? I give up! 

I don't care anymore which end is used. As long as I can avoid that hidden black tail inside the peel, then I'm good.
Does anyone else know about the hidden black tail? Tons of people have eaten that part without knowing it.

How do you even peel from B? That doesn't seem to make any sense.

It's a lot easier than it looks, like almost 0 effort required
