...zero mess? What exactly are you doing with the "wrapper?" You know you're not supposed to eat it, right?
Throw it on the ground as a trap for the one walking behind you
You can absolutely eat banana peels, cooked or raw. They're full of fiber, antioxidants, all your basic fruit goodness. I don't eat them, but I understand the people who do.
I imagine they'd be chock full of pesticides tho
Though generally with fruits the added amount of vitamins and all the good stuff that’s concentrated in the skin far outweighs the small amount of pesticides you might consume.
Is this AI slop?? Because I don’t believe this
You can eat it. Proof: me.
Get out.
I'm calling the cops.
Just throw it behind your kart to slow down your opponents
I prefer to accidentally throw it in front of my own kart.
The silver lining is that it's biodegradable. And good as compost
also, banana strings
