    Eating beach bananas sounds like a great way to get some kind of weird illness. It’s not like there’s a nearby banana tree that they could have come from. But maybe I’m just too accustomed to grocery stores

        Would you eat a banana out of the toilet, as long as you peeled it first?

      I would just assume that through osmosis those bananas ate salty as fuck, plus I have seen the size of the fucking spiders on some of those bananas being shipped here, no fuck you

        They addressed that, actually.

        True to the spirit of journalistic inquiry, your correspondent can attest that seawater has not degraded the taste of the bananas, with the only threats to health posed by skin slippage and by eating too many of them.

        The tarantulas have usually abandoned the bananas by the time we eat the bananas.

            When I was younger, sometimes as I’m tearing a banana from the bundle I’d picture the tarantulas that might’ve been crawling all over it, and I wondered if I was touching the same spot a hairy tarantula leg had been. I didn’t like having those thoughts. So I try not to have those thoughts anymore.

          So you’re saving buying a big load of bananas isn’t a good way to get a new cuddly spider friend? :(

          You won’t have to, the edible part of the banana will absorb the skins content.

      Weird, right? On the one hand - we dont eat banana peels. So, it must be fine, right? But on the other hand, I’d also hesitate to eat a snickers bar washed up on the shore.
