Is anyone else absolutely repulsed by...

[MummyToZ]

Bananas?

The look. The taste. The smell. The feel. Just everything!

Typing this while 9 month old DD is happily shovelling huge bits of banana into her mouth 🤮

God yeah. Ate one when I was pregnant and it made me so sick, that years later I can only tolerate the odd one (and it has to be most unripe and firm/tasteless as possible) 😝

Not bananas but tomatoes - epitome of evil! I like tomato based sauces etc but not an actual tomato!

I love a banana milkshake but can’t eat bananas at all 🤢

And yeah that squishy noise babies make when they eat them 🤢😑

They have to be green with only a hint of yellow. Can’t stand anything banana flavoured. The Banana Bread Lockdown Frenzy passed me by

I agree. The texture reminds me of phlegm
🤢

Urgh I hate them… taste, texture… they’re just wrong 😆

No, but I’m not mad about them. And they have to have zero black over-ripe bits.
What repulses me is meat fat (unless it’s on very crisped-up streaky bacon.). How anyone can enjoy that loathsome stuff defeats me.

agree devils work! remember eating as sandwiches when i was a kid ...not since....they ruin so many smoothies/cakes etc. vile.. dc ate as babies but not since toddlers! dh only eater here... I blame them for global warming as well ...

I can only handle banana at a very specific stage. The skin must be yellow with a tiny bit of green at the top. Tom green and they are still hard in the middle, any brown at all and I can’t eat them. They go all powdery and I can’t bear it.

Bananas are ok...cucumbers, on the other hand, are the Devil's food.

I clicked into this thread just as I was tucking into a thick banana sandwich

Sorry. I'll get my coat 😆

🤮🤮🤮

Don't forget to shut the door on your way out!

@MummyToZ

I'm gone. I'm gone.

As you were.

Nothing to see here

@WhatTheHeckyPeck cucumbers are evil, the pollute everything they touch.
I also hate their drag cousin melon.

I used to have bad dreams about eating a banana and it tasting horrible. Woild wake up feeling sick. In real life I like them if they are a bit green. Especially in a sandwich with peanut butter!

Yes, I've always hated them.

When I was little my mum made me pancakes that tasted weird and had a different texture. I asked why and she admitted she'd added mashed banana to try and trick me into eating them 🤮

BETRAYED

Never forgotten that! And never fully trusted her pancakes after. I'd always ask if she'd added anything!

I love bananas, you are weird.

The only food, I won't eat! Found my people say last!

My Dd ruined bananas for me! I couldn’t eat them when I was pregnant with her, she still can’t eat them( she’s 21!) . And I still can’t!!

I love them, but only if they are at a specific stage of ripeness. Any hint of green or brown is unacceptable. Quite a few get wasted in my house because there is a limit to how much banana bread you can bake.

Yessss. Sludge. Ooze. The squish of overripe bananas as they burst on touching, leaking their gelatinous insides all over your hands. The smell. Eurgh

Bananas and eggs are the same to me. Lovely when they are JUST right, vom inducing when they not.

Yes! The smell alone makes me gag, and the taste and noise people make when eating them is terrible.

currently pregnant with my first and I’m already thinking about weaning, if I have to eat it to encourage the baby 😩 hoping DH can be all the encouragement they need as he loves them 🤢

my ex mil once made a Sharwoods jar type chicken tikka masala and padded it out with banana because she was worried it wouldn’t have enough meat to go round.
tasted awful of course and had a mucous like texture …was one of the worst things I’ve ever tasted.
