I strongly dislike their taste and am allergic to them, but yeah that are individual problems. Also… why is high kalium so important?

Aside from the explosions I think kalium a good precaution against cramps in sports.

Bad thing: It tastes like a banana.
Devjavu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 month ago
Yeah, I’d much prefer it if it tasted like paint thinner. SpeAKING OF WHICH

Some people find the smell very strong. Something to do with receptors idk? I know someone with a banana allergy who can immediately tell if he’s entered a room with bananas in it from smell alone, even if they’re not peeled.

smells bad to me. just the typical american grocery store kind though. in countries where they have every other banana they actually smell great.

High potassium isn’t great with spiro.

What is Spiro?
WalrusDragonOnABike@reddthat.com 1 month ago
A purple dragonA diuretic that causes excess retention of potassium (and also blocks androgen receptors and also a medication for high blood pressure, but those aren’t relevant to potassium).

We’re both right.
More ripe = better
Less ripe = butt-plug

people don’t like eating the brown part (which is still edible) causing food waste

Idk if yhis is true, but here in the south it’s said that too much sugar makes bananans decay during transportation. The best ones never make it out of my country.

I mean it’s pretty inefficient to pack up due to their weird shape i bet that > 20% of the box volume in which they are shipped in is just empty space.

You can shove them up your arse…also a great benefit.

Could be less stringy, also the little brown bit at the bottom is annoying. Also which it stayed in the not too ripe zone a little longer. They go ripe way too quick.

When they’re still a bit green they taste rank.
