Efficient energy source
Conveniently portable and self-packaged, bananas are a great source of potassium and natural sugars. However, the window of perfect ripeness is so small that it feels like a commitment. Eat it too soon? Chalky. Wait too long? You're hosting a fruit fly rave. Solid snack, but temperamental.

Emotional rollercoaster
I peeled this banana with hope, only to discover it was slightly underripe. Still, I persevered. The texture was firm—almost challenging—but I convinced myself it was an edgy new experience. Halfway through, it broke in my hand like a betrayal. I finished it anyway because I'm not a quitter, but I couldn't help thinking: was it me or the banana? Did I rush this? Three stars because it was technically edible, but emotionally? Devastating.
Yellow, bent, fine.
