Oh no Banana's are going extinct!

How much would this impact you if bananas go extinct?

    EAT ONE EVERY DAY
    Good source of potassium
    would totally miss them

    I guess it will cut down some of my practical jokes (the old banana peal on the side walk trick). Actually it might impact me with leg cramps - I used to get a lot of leg cramps but after I started eating banana's regularly the leg cramps stopped. Cheers and happy weekend!

    I used to eat one every day, but a couple of months ago, my potassium level was getting too high, so I cut them out.  I must be eating enough of something else high in potassium.

    No direct impact as I have not eaten them since I was perhaps eight years old.

    I don't eat them. So, no impact. I work with two guys who eat them every day and they would be very unhappy.

    Can't happen.  Everyone in my family eats a banana every single day.  When I visit my mother in assisted living, she always looks first to be sure I have a bag for her with five or six bananas.  The facility has them out all the time for the residents but my mother thinks the ones from Winn Dixie as the best.  I guess I really am her daughter....

    I never liked bananas anyway. It's the texture, it makes me gag.

    They do have a slippery feel in a way.  Do you like banana flavor?  I love banana.  LOVE banana.  And I love anything banana. (Except fast food garbage flavored cheap chemical banana)

    Organic bananas are very flavorful.  Put them in vanilla ice cream and blend in a blender and make a banana shake.  And add a sprig of mint.  Yum.  And make it a malt by adding malt.  Heaven.  Top with some fresh whipped cream.  

    I'm stuffed.

    I don't really care for the flavor either. I guess I like banana pudding, but not enough to care if I'll ever get to eat it again.

    I just did an answer about bananas.  Weird.
