The Perfect Fruit


My nominee for best fruit ever:

Bananas

To wit:

  • Straight up delicious

  • Portable

  • Easy to peel

  • No annoying seeds

  • Versatile: whole, sliced, mashed, puréed, raw, baked, broiled, flambéed

  • Inedible parts have enormous comedic potential

I used to throw out bananas when they got to that "too  brown" stage.  What an idiot I was!  That's honestly when they are just starting to get really good for recipes.  Let them get totally black and then put them in the freezer for when you need them.  Brilliance!  Thaw them out and they are pre-mashed with the perfect consistency for baking.
