Facts You Probably Didn't Know About Bananas

Hello, I'm new here and don't mean to be a grouch, but bananas are a horrid thing to eat if we care even a little bit about our earth and its people.

Their cultivation and shipping has destroyed lands, displaced people and destroyed traditional cultures. They are shipped in huge cargo haulers which burn the worst of polluting fuels.

Sorry if I sound ornery, I'm not really. But we need to know how damaging some of our diet is to other humans, the land, water and air.

The Banana Boat Song. My band used to do it. We had a routine, the sax player and I, where he'd stop the song when I sang the line: "A beautiful bunch a'ripe banana,
(Daylight come and he wan' go home), Hide thee deadly black tarantula, (Daylight come and he wan' go home). He'd talk about his fear of spiders in a hilarious way. The audience loved it.
