Domesticated/altered plants spread back into the wild all the time, and chimps have been here as long as we have, IOW, they have learned to recognize and eat bananas by quite literally reaping our fruits, so to speak. And even if you find a chimp/great ape or even a monkey that has never seen a banana, my bet is that its going to figure it out pretty quickly, they are curios and fast learners

I want to know this: do our normal yellow bananas grow wild through some sort of propagation from our selectively bred bananas? If not, how do animals (like captive apes) know what bananas are/how to eat them when we give them our yellow bananas, assuming they've come from a non-yellow banana area?

Here's the banana god argument for reference :

Now, check out what wild bananas look like without selective breeding:

Men tend to not pick up on the subtle nuances of sexism.
About 3 months ago I entered a room at work. A female colleague of mine, one of the most attractive ones at that time, was eating a sandwich or something like that. Nothing phallic like a banana. Across the room stood another coworker, freshly married father of a newborn son. He was watching her eating with an expression of certain interest and after I inquired what's so interesting he proclaimed loudly enough for her to her "I could watch her do that all day." His tone said way more than his words.
The woman was eating a fucking sandwich. I'm still waiting for the day when I'm licking an icecream cone and any woman tells me she could watch me do that all day long.

And that's just the subtle stuff, the socially acceptable creepiness.

Mmmmmm....banana!

These videos have about as much going for them as the religious ones that disprove evolution by citing the banana.

Weak.

I'm going to go make some banana pancakes now...

Of course the kid's gonna prove God exists.

Because, bananas, right?

R-O-F-L !!!!!
I saw that clip as a kid, and loved it - and as a non-english speaker I never caught the banana/bandana bit at all! Thank you!!!

And here I thought he's gonna fling the restored banana into the air rather than making it 'disappear'
