Food Hack: Banana Split!

Ever find yourself staring at a banana and thinking, "Damn, this banana would be perfect if only it were split into thirds"?  For those fruit-philosophers out there who do... today is your lucky day.  The reality is that bananas naturally split into thirds. All you have to do is peel the banana then lightly press the sides together around the end.  It's easier to do if you break the banana in half first.  It's great if you have two other banana loving friends or multiple personalities.

Fun Fact: The bananas we most commonly refer to are actually dessert bananas.  Wild bananas contain many large, hard seeds and have very little edible meat.

  1. Another fun idea it to take a large CLEAN needle and cut the banana into slices while still closed in the peel by pushing the needle through the skin and moving it back and forth until sliced. Repeat until you have the amount of slices desired. When the unsuspecting banana eater peels their banana they will be surprised to find it already sliced!!
