Wasn't this a Mitch Hedburg joke?

Yes, yes it was.

Fuck, maybe I watch too much Dr. Katz. Nah, no such thing, I need my Jon Benjamin fix.

"Somebody once said to me 'This is a picture of me when I was younger.' Every picture is of you when you were younger! 'Here's a picture of me when I'm older.' You son of a bitch, how'd you pull that off? Lemme see that camera!"

He was with us for such a short time, but what he produced in that time was legendary.

They are also softer and sweeter than the yellow Cavendish varieties, some with a slight raspberry flavor

Excuse me how are these not in every grocery store, that sounds amazing.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

They're really good too.

Personally, I like bananas when they're still a little green. Once the last of the green is gone, I don't really enjoy the flavor anymore.

..but they just get sweeter man! I’m sorry but I think I may have to expose your true identity as satan :/

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That's the problem, they get too sweet, I like my bananas to have that tinge of sourness.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I legitimately laughed out loud at the red banana simply labelled "what"

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I do hate it when my banana turns red
