My Christmas organic fruit and veg order has just arrived and I ordered some extra bananas for Christmas.

I thought I ordered an extra kilo - but my finger must have slipped - and so I now have 11 bags of bananas sitting in my kitchen!

A prize (bunch of bananas) for the person who comes up with the longest list of banana dishes

lol!

I once read that eating 5 bananas a day can reduce your blood pressure. Didn't mention what effect it would have on the bowels though.

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 19/12/2007 14:14

really i eat about 5 what does raising mucus do?

onebatmotherofgoditschilly · 19/12/2007 14:14

Fry! Add brandy! Add match! Eat with icecrea!

onebatmotherofgoditschilly · 19/12/2007 14:15

dammit
match is to light brandy and must be blown out not eaten.

Myrrhcy - yes they do reduce blood pressure - my friend had to eat loads of them while in hospital for weeks with pre-eclampsia.

Never heard abut the mucous thing though - off to google before I pig out on bananas for lunch

so if u go to a party and they ask if your shoes are clean then take a banana out of your pocket eat it to line yiouyr stomach and the rub the skin over your shoes and say yes they are babe

GrimmaTheNome · 19/12/2007 14:22

sliced frozen banana is quite nice as it is, or you can blend it with yog for instant ice-cream-ish concoction or of course use in cooking. banana muffins are good, chocolate banana muffins even better.

I hope all those skins are going in a compost heap, like the fruit itself high in potassium so vg for flowering plants.

read second para - good mucous not bad mucous

hahaha. also don't forget banana skins make excellent pantyliners for feeling very fresh.

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 19/12/2007 14:23

interesting

onebatmotherofgoditschilly · 19/12/2007 14:25

i don't want to hear about good or bad anal mucus. Am very fresh and clean..

DoesntChristmasDragOn · 19/12/2007 14:27

I prefer to freeze them peeled, in a bag/box, as I find squeezing them out of their thawed skins really rather revolting! It reminds me of pooing

soapbox · 19/12/2007 14:28

God knows what the organic company thought

I suppose I did also order 5 kilos of clementines - so they probably thought we are just a bunch of weirdy fruit eaters

ha ha I love these internet shopping errors!

My friends thought they were buying 8 oranges and ended up with 8 bags of 12 oranges.

96 oranges = cocktail night round at theirs! With minimal hangover possibly due to extra vitamin C intake or something.
