Let me hear you say this poll is bananas
B-A-N-A-N-A-S
(This poll is bananas)
(B-A-N-A-N-A-S)

Okay, seriously.. I'm eating a banana and it's very ripe, mostly brown with hints of yellow and I realized I like yellow bananas with a hint of green. So what kind of bananas do ya'll like?

MJ4H · 06-09-2008, 10:24 AM

yellow with a hint of brown obv

MikeVic · 06-09-2008, 10:25 AM

I don't eat bananas anymore because I think I get some kind of allergic reaction to them.

But I'll eat Gwen Stefani.

Passacaglia · 06-09-2008, 10:27 AM

Somewhere between "green" and "yellow with a hint of green"

DaddyTorgo · 06-09-2008, 10:27 AM

the brown creeps me out. not when it's on the peel, but the brown spots in the banana. so i go for yellow with a hint of green

Racer · 06-09-2008, 10:38 AM

I prefer bananas that are yellow with a hint of brown.

illinifan999 · 06-09-2008, 10:42 AM

the smell of bananas makes me nauseous

Cringer · 06-09-2008, 10:55 AM

with green I guess. not as sweet or soft.

me too. I am definitely anti-banana

Fidatelo · 06-09-2008, 11:12 AM

All yellow.

Drake · 06-09-2008, 11:22 AM

This poll was not what I was expecting.

Not quite as disappointing as if you'd titled this thread "Cucumbers", but disappointing nonetheless.

MrBug708 · 06-09-2008, 11:29 AM

I dislike the consistency of mushy fruit

According to Alton Brown of "Good Eats".. bannanas are at their best for consumption when they are yellow with a hint of brown.

Cringer · 06-09-2008, 12:24 PM

Alton Brown doesn't have my taste buds.

Axxon · 06-09-2008, 12:32 PM

All yellow man myself. Once they go brown, time for some banana bread.

When I was growing up, we really didn't have cereal in the house so 'cereal' sometimes consisted of bananas sliced up in milk and then sugar poured over it which would create a nice liquid mass of sugar milk in the bottom.

Come to think of it... we poured sugar on alot of stuff. Raisin bran - sugar, Puffed Wheat - sugar, French Toast - sugar (and I aint' talkin' about the powdered sugar. I'm talking about the cane sugar. Hell, I would have probably dropped in sugar cubes if we had them)

I didn't have the most healthy parents in the world teaching me. Plus, we must have been alot more ef'n poor than I realized if I was reduced to eating sliced bananas in milk.

Fidatelo · 06-09-2008, 01:56 PM

We ate bananas in milk all the time (with sugar on top the same), although not usually for breakfast, more as a snack. I still like it as a little treat once in awhile.

I stand corrected. I guess we weren't poor, we were Canadian.

They call me mellow yellow.

They don't call me mellow yellow with a hint of green.

If you have a hint of green you won't be smokin the mellow yellow.

The Land of the Lost... wow.. great show.

terpkristin · 06-09-2008, 08:55 PM

If I'm eating them, I like 'em yellow with a hint of green or all yellow. I like them firmer (yes, go to town with that), in part because I put them in cereals (Cheerios and oatmeal). If I'm making banana bread, the browner the better.

ColtCrazy · 06-09-2008, 10:07 PM

I like them yellow, with a hint of green. Once they get a little brown, I'm done. My wife will occasionally salvage them into banana pudding, but usually they die an undignified death. I have a very brown one that got forgotten and is in the fridge. No one has removed it yet. I'm hoping it will leave on its own.

Bananas are supposed to be yellow.

Loved the Banana Splits. I used to watch it all the time. They had Speed Racer as one of the cartoons in their show.
