To think I'm not the only one...?

That puts sliced banana on my chilli con carne?

And then stuffs it all in a pita bread?

Because, right now, my friends seem to be questioning my sanity...

There has to be someone else in England who does this, right? Right?

I'm not in England, don't do this... but might, now you've mentioned it!

It is absolutely gorgeous. And if you're a wimp like me, takes the edge off the chilli a bit...

My friend has just asked if I've taken a blow to the head... :( Ouch.

Errmmmm..no. I smother mine with sour cream and grated cheese.
Use tortillas sometimes instead of pitta which is a pita.
Have garnished, ooh, hark at me, with tomato and avocado before.
Have also had chocolate added to the mix.
And I adore chilli on toast.
But never banana. What put you onto that idea and is it nice...

Oooh, another one for the grated cheese brigade, but only if I'm out of bananas.

My dad actually started me on it as a child, it's just stuck ever since...

Are you pregnant and this is your wierd craving

I'm another grated cheese and sour cream fan.

I don think adding banana to it would ever cross my mind! May have to try it before I mock it!

If I am pregnant, it's the immaculate conception.... ;)

I'm sure there's a curry with banana in, so it's not beyond the realms of normality but I'm not going to try it you utter fruitcake.

Nooooo!

Don't kill me, you ratbag.

I know how to make a banana penguin.

Wait, what...

A banana penguin?

I want to know more...

I also want to know more about banana penguins.

And I want to know where frothydragon's dad got the banana on chili idea

TBH, my dad is a little weird... But he also spent a lot of time travelling as a child, so think it was somewhere on his travels.

It kind of makes sense. The sweetness cancels out the heat of the chilli.

Still odd though

Sigh. I've just had to admit to my friend that the general consensus is "yeah, that's weird..." Not going to hear the end of this... :(

I love chicken Simla (sp?) which is like a very mild curry served with pasta and we always have bananas and sliced tomatoes on top it's lovely!

YES! Another one!

We have a weirdos corner oover here, Lurkio. So far, it consists of... me?

Not quite the same but I used to love bacon and banana pizza..

I once made a fruit pizza in high school... My mother thought I'd lost the plot...

You guys are all bonkers. Everyone knows that the only fruit that goes in or on chili is finely chopped pineapple.

Have I just entered some sort of weird parallel universe?

don't think I'd like it - maybe in a curry

was it a chilli your friend made? Did you bring your own banana?

No! My body weight in cheese, guacamole, salsa and sour cream all go with chilli.

Bananas go much better with pancakes and chocolate sauce.

I always put chocolate in chilli con carne and next time I make one I'll chuck in a banana too but at the notion of stuffing a good chilli in pita bread when it's so easy to buy or make flour tortillas and deep fry them into tacos

My usbands family have banana with curry, saying that FIL has banana with most things along with a croissant or crumpet!!
