I haven’t had frozen banana since the chocolate covered ones when I was a kid. I remember them being very hard. Maybe these weren’t in the freezer long enough to get that hard. Tasted like banana ice cream, but it was just banana.
Bonus sunset pic from this evening’s walk:
Get yourself a ninja creami. Bananas plus some kind of base (yogurt, pudding mix, protein powder), freeze and process. Lots of recipes out there.
The technical reason is that it lyses the cells. The freezing process causes the water in the cells to expand, often beyond the boundary of their cell membrane/ cell wall. The breaks/ punctures the membrane/ wall. These releases more sugars, that otherwise would require either chewing or digestion to expose.
I usually freeze between 20-60 lbs of banana a month, at least during summer/ fall when banana’s are a plenty.
That is a LOT of bananas.
There’s always money in the banana stand.
I mean where do you think the stand gets its bananas?

At the banana fest!
This weeks bananas:
NEXT weeks bananas:
Every week?
Are you the guy that goes to the banana festival in hawaii and can’t stand the cavendish?
Holy banana lore

I mean, I certainly picture a tropical dingdong eating a lot of bananas
Huh, today I learned!
Op asks a question then absolutely roasts you for knowing the answer. A sight to behold
I hoped it would be taken as a joke, a light jab, a bit of razzing for fun.
But, if I write it, I own it. My humor doesn’t always land, and thems the breaks.
Hey, I thought it was hilarious
I took it as the picture was OP taking notes excitedly.
I don’t wear red-framed glasses.
Anymore. People made fun of me. Said I wasn’t the flashy type. Told me to stay in my lane. Fine.
It’s because there’s always money in the banana stand. Just remember that.
How much was in the banana stand. Did anyone do the math?
Here’s some money. Go see a star war.
George sr says there was $250000 in there after george michael burns it down. Also apparently this already happened in episode 2? Could have sworn the money in the banana stand gag went on longer.

Same. I thought that gag came later in the show.
Cold nanner flavor particles get sleepy when cold and don’t run away as fast
Thank you. I knew someone would know. This is very interesting.
‘Do you want a frozen banana?’
‘No but I want a regular one later so yeah.’
This guy probably writes with a highlighter.
Have previously mixed in some protein powder in a blender to make something very ice cream like without all the sugar and fat.

Why are you putting so much emphasis on the “h”?
It fixes their texture. Gorgeous pic!
When I don’t get through bananas and they get over-ripe, I freeze them (peeled). They’re perfect for banana pancakes, baking, smoothies, dessert, etc.
I literally just did that with a big bunch of bananas. Like, 45 seconds before I sat down and opened Lemmy. What an interesting coincidence.
They make for great banana bread; the riper the better
They’re so annoying to peel if they’re frozen in the peel. I much prefer to peel them first before freezing
Banana ice cream is just blended frozen bananas at the most basic. Sure you can add some (non)dairy milk and sugar, but it’s still mostly just banana. And it’s delicious!
Try putting them in a blender with some almond milk and a scoop of peanut butter.
I don’t like bananas to begin with and this sounds like you’ve just made them worse.
You caught me.
Like, I hate the smooth creaminess of bananas and you’ve made them even smoother and creamier.
Next time don’t put them in a blender with some vanilla creamer and chocolate syrup and whipped cream and maybe cinnamon and nutmeg on top.
I use frozen bananas to make one of the tastiest shakes I’ve ever had. I can’t recommend it enough:
My wife brought home little frozen chocolate covered banana bites one day. They didn’t deserve to be as delicious as they were!
Huh, never tried because i would have expected them to be just cold rocks until thawed. Will investigate.
