Something you may or may not know

The banana – a common fruit in most countries. Most people love them or like them, they are full of vitamins and they are a great restitution fruit after a workout!

Now, I’m probably not the only person who has experienced trying to open a banana from this end:

…And the banana does not cooperate. You find yourself bending the banana in every way possible trying to open it.

But have you ever watched a monkey, who I think we can all agree on is a banana expert, try to open one?

They start at this end. Get a banana, and try it. Pinch the tip, and you’ll find that the banana easily opens – every time!

I’ve been so excited about this new trick that I’ve been buying bananas just so I can try it again and again. It’s cool, try it!
