My girlfriend breaks them apart into singles and then wraps the calyx of each banana (the place where they all were joined…I’m not sure that calyx is the correct word) with tin foil. I don’t know if the foil makes any difference though.

You need to wipe it in honey first, and cover the honey in cinnamon. Then take a toothpick and push it through the center of that. Then, kid you not, chocolate syrup. Put it in the freezer and it’ll last a millennium.

It might be delicious if we weren’t talking about the inedible fibrous stump of a banana peel.

Update: the stem of a banana, even when slathered with multiple delicious things, is in fact still disgusting.

She seems to think that wrapping the stump in foil protects the rest of the fruit. I don’t see how it would, but I just roll with it. Her parents do it too. They are all from a completely different culture so I just shrug and smile.
