I like bananas. Mostly. Good, clean potassium fun. I like to eat them on their own; except when they’re black or squishy. Ugh… squishy bananas. I like to eat them with peanut butter on toast (or bagels, toasted bagels…mmmm). I like banoffi pie. A lot. I like bananas in crepes with sugar. And a hint of Nutella if I’m feeling adventurous. I do not like banana yoghurt. I do not like banana splits. Or banana flavored drinks. And I don’t like when a smoothie tastes too strongly of banana. As you can see, I’m quite conflicted over the banana. I like them, but in a restrained way and I have to be in the mood for them.
So I don’t know how I feel about all this banana fashion that’s creeping onto the highstreet. Prada unleashed some banana prints on the catwalk, then V magazine does a Tutti Frutti editorial, heavily featuring the banana. Next thing you know, we have banana tops, broaches, necklaces and earrings. Bananas. Who’d a thunk it? Is this a flash in the (banana) pan or do you think you might get involved??
