are bananas edible?

Question

I've never tried it, but I was thinking: surely if I were on a desert island, I'd try it. There must be some nutritional value in the banana skin

Answer 1

Of course you can eat bananas !!! They are available from every supermarket and greengrocers. Very good for you, and favoured by athletes and other sports persons. You will survive on a desert island if you have a banana tree beside you, but you can survive 10 days without food or water, but only 3 minutes without oxygen getting to the brain.

Answer 2

The peel's contain bananadine, which is a psychoactive. Thats why it's no joke when you hear people talk about smoking them. I guess if you were bored on a desert Island.

Answer 3

bananas are actually really good for you i got a e-mail from a friend that instead of a apple a day you should eat a banana a day...
