Hi Tricia,
Very interesting article on banana strings. I used to be bothered by those too but ever since a cousin told me that the fibers in those banana strings are good for the digestive system, I now regard them on a more neutral level. If they're stuck on the banana, sometimes I don't take them off anymore.
Sam's suggestion is worth considering, maybe even turn the banana strings into a musical theme?
Talking about eggs, most Americans who have been to the Philippines consider our "Balut" repulsive. It's a local delicacy, a duck egg that's usually cooked around 14-18 days after it's laid so there is actually a duck embryo inside. We eat it to revitalize ourselves after a long day's work. My apologies to those with a vivid imagination.
Dennis
