This is a simple survey to determine something. Please answer the following questions, preferably truthfully.

1. Sex: Male, Female, Both, Other, None?
2. Do you peel the bananna before eathing it?
3. Do you start eating from the top or the bottom (top being the    non-stem end)?
4. Do you eat it round and round, end to end "typewriter style", or bit off bits in a linear fashion? Or do you consume it in another way, such as liquifying it and sucking it up through a straw? (Cutting off pieces and eating them with a fork means you're anal-retentive and doesn't count.)




(Sorry, but I resisted doing this all weekend.)

Sometimes I have a friend toss it to me and I catch it and eat it the way a seal eats a fish. Other times, I put a tooth pick through the middle and spin it around and take random bites.

1) When I can (not often enough)
2) Er....
3) ooh now.... ummmmmm. Surely if the top of an apple is where the stem was, then the top of a bananana should also be where the stem was... you're saying our banananananas are all upsidedown.
4) smashed up in a daiquiri.

I know how to spell banananana, just not when to stop.

1. None of your business
2. Is that some kind of euphamism for something?
3 and 4. I only eat bananas in fruit salads. Does that mean I'm just mixed up?

and when I can be bothered to make pancakes, I fill the pancake with banana and thick cream, fold or roll up the filled pancake, add more thick cream, sprinkle with grated chocolate, or sprinkle with demerara sugar and flamber.

It's French – flamber, to flame.
When you've done it the thing you did it to is flambé, or in the case of pancakes flambées

You didn't mention a flammable liquid. Do you set the pancakes themselves on fire? I did that once, and boy did I catch it from my mother! I was cooking the pancakes in grease (bach then such things didn't harm your health) and the next thing I knew flames were shooting up. Didn't do any damage beyond the pancakes and having to repaint the kitchen ceiling; she never let me do it again, either, no matter how hard we pled.

Bananna is SchnozzleDurantespeak. As in "It aint a BANANNA, it's my nose"
Ronnie Scott (Late UK Jazz Club owner and musician) joke "My waitress will pass among you, she's a very moral girl and eats bananas sideways".

Rapaire, the easiest way is to use a blowtorch - play it gently over the top layer of sugar, which will frizzle into crisp caramel.

1. Sex: Me, or the bananna? I'm male. Banannas look male, but looks can be deceiving, ya know.

2. I usually peel the bananna while eating it, not before. That helps insure that I get more bananna than the swarm of fruit flies that is bound to be hovering around it. It also makes it easier to reseal it if, after two bites, I decide I really wanted a cookie instead.

3. I eat banannas from the stem end toward the blossom end. I usually slice through the stem with my trusty Kershaw Ken Onion "Chive" model pocket knife. It is the only logical way to eat them. There are spiders that sometimes bore into the blossom end of banannas and build their nests in there. If you peel from the blossom end the spider might jump out and bite you. If you start eating at the stem you'll notice the discoloration that indicates something is amiss with the bananna and you'll stop eating it before taking a mouthful of spider.

4. "Do you eat it round and round, end to end "typewriter style", or bit off bits in a linear fashion?" No, I just eat the goddammed thing.

Regarding the PM's from several FEMALE 'Cats, who shall remain nameless, for obvious reasons, about my Uni nickname.

No. The nickname was granted to me at Uni becuase I was "a wild and crazy guy"... because I could "go bananas" at any given moment. Just act crazy and have fun. The guys in my residence (all male residence back then) did not give me the nickname because I have a big banana. I hope that clears things up for you lasses.

Yeah, sure. And I have it on excellent authority that you spent very, very little time in your "men's" residence hall. Put a "wo" in front and you spent much time there...or so my excellent authority says.
