I prefer apples. You don't have to peel them. You just eat them.

By peeling from the tip, it removes the black end from the tip of the banana.

I hear the black bits in bananas are tarantula eggs.

I've always peeled it from the tip because then you can just hold it by the stem and get the edible part out by peeling the skin. It just makes more sense to me to hold it by the stem instead of the center part to avoid switching hands and stuff. Overall it's just one of those cultural differences that makes us unique. Might even be a great topic for a thesis that you can order on prothesiswriter.com if you ever need to.

While we are on the subject of bananas and how apparently 37% of the population are bat shit crazy savages.... am I the only one who isn't a huge fan of bananas? I mean if that's all I have I will eat it, but I'm certainly not going out of my way to buy them. They have after taste of... vomit.

I cannot stand the smell, taste, texture or anything else about bananas. The mere smell of them makes me gag and nearly through up. The guys in my office know not to eat them at work as well.

They are the devils work and should be banned!

A banana or in my case half of one at a time is a good fuel to give you energy before some labour intensive work.
