    When I eat bananas, I usually cut the stem with a knife so I can then peel it from the top of the banana down. It's been a while since I've eaten one. I usually eat apples every day though.

    I've heard the same trick about peeling bananas from the bottom to minimize the stringy things. I usually eat mine with a cat watching closely because bananas go with cereal, which goes with milk, which she loves.

    I would say I pretty much always peel it from the stem down.

    BTW...my brothers' cat Max HATES bananas. If you even get one near him he will shake his paw and turn. LOL.

    Pretty funny Elyse. I love how they are always coming up with gagets to solve problems that do not exist.

    I eat one with my mouth!!!! Doesn't everybody?

    Seriously tho - I peel from the top down. I never gave it any thought to do otherwise. I learned a new trick today - I'll have to give the bottom up a try next time I eat one.

    I'm cutting mine to slices and eat them with rice milk, oatmeal, and chia seeds.

    I peel and eat from the stem end, never have any problem with stringy bits - but the real answer is I eat bananas with glee! I am no longer allergic to them, but had to avoid them for 10+ years, so now when I eat banana, I REALLy enjoy them!

    I haven't eaten a banana in a good 3 years. So I guess, "I don't do bananas".
