Real bananas are pretty good but banana flavoring is just ok.

The real answer is vanilla. Not only is it great on its own, but half (at least) of the things you listed would be a mess without vanilla holding it together. The ice cream, the baked goods the pudding,, the smoothies and other drinks, ect.

Vanilla is god tier.

This man knows what's up. It even makes scented candles tolerable.

I love actual bananas, but banana flavored anything is pretty gross.

 

[Busaiku]

Mango and it's not even close.

The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

 

[EightBitNate]

Bananas pretty great

Coconut/pineapple is the GOAT tho

 

[TxdoHawk]

Banana good on it's own? Oh yes, but how bout a pizza topping?

Unlike pineapple, which tends to cause riots around these parts, I think the answer is pretty clear on this one...

Spoiler

Or is it?

I would eat this pizza. Also fuck the haters, pineapple on pizza is AMAZING.

I ate a banana just now

Is it weird that to me, the worst thing about these panels is the implication that she doesn't chew with her mouth closed?

I oppose the notion earlier in this thread that only non-white people can like bananas.

I'm pasty-white and I like bananas. I even like the artificial flavour that's supposed to taste like banana.

And even if I didn't, I am absolutely in love with the banana fruit itself. The thing is just perfect. The skin is stable and durable enough to keep the dirt out and protect the delishus innards from harm, it has an automated color-coded warning system for unripe banana, traumatic damage and old age, it's easy as fuck to open while resisting accidental access. Plus, the way it peels open allows you to eat the entire thing without ever touching the stuff you eat. Very hygienic.

Sadly, the shit you can buy at supermarkets is usually pretty gross. Fresh banana without the chemical ripening is an estimated billion times better.


However, my most beloved fruit at the moment is the mulberry. It's mutated raspberries that grow on trees that don't taste anything like raspberries. So yummy. Sadly, they're really hard to come by depending on where you live.

Bananas are too long.

 

[Dad]

It's a novelty flavor at best. Try again

 

[alba]

Banana is GOAT, so I agree OP.

 

[Blues1990]

It's a pretty badass berry, no?

 

[orochi91]

That's not how you spell pineapple :/

 

[Host Samurai]

Watermelon is GOAT
Banana is only 2nd to the godly Watermelon

 

[patrickthehedgehog]

Behold, God's gift. The other flavors are great too.

No one wants banana Runts.

Banana Runts were my favourite.

 

[The Real Abed]

No one wants banana Runts.

Banana Runts are the best Runts. I see that picture as the machine operator knowing what their customers want. Banana Runts by the barrelful!

I enjoy real bananas, but not banana flavoring. Blegh. Cherry and vanilla? Aw yeah baby.

Curious about the banana beer though. Sounds terrible.

This thread is gross. You people are sick.

Listen to the man.

Have you had banana bread? Do you like it?
If yes then try the beer. It tastes almost exactly like banana bread. Its pretty much a dessert just by itself.

Hmmmm. I'll give it a shot.

 

[joelseph]

Checks out.

 

[MilkyJoe]

It is fucking awesome

 

[M3d10n]

Artificial banana flavor is absolute ass.

Yup, tastes nothing like the real thing or anything made with the real thing I ever tasted.

 

[Vyer]

Even if I wanted to argue hitting me first with the banana pudding pic stopped me cold. hnnnng banana pudding

Well played, OP

 

[CosmicGroinPull]

Does Gaf have a 'put all posters in thread on ignore' function?

 

[CAAAAAAAAAAAW]

Was about to disagree, but then I saw

I need some of this. RIGHT NOW

 

[BGBW]

Anyone remember Kellogg's Banana Bubbles?

They were disgusting.

And I like bananas.

 

[Fried Food]

banana flavoring sucks. Real bananas used as ingredients are great.

Works great with some curry.

 

[Greddleok]

Peanut butter is better.

 

[MrChom]

banoffee pie

The two greatest words in the English language.

 

[biggersmaller]

I love banana, but hate hate hate all banana flavored candy.

 

[casablanca]

Banana is ok.
Almonds is the real answer.

 

[teruterubozu]

Banana + white chocolate is the combo of the gods.
