 A half eaten banana was sold on the Internet auction site Ebay for US$2500, with the money going to charity. The other half of the banana was eaten by a British television presenter. The successful bidder was a United Kingdom stockbroker.

 Passengers and crew would purchase wooden crates of bananas from the locals and bring them abroad. These crates often harboured bugs, spiders, vermin and snakes that would make their way into the bilges of the ships, multiply, and then find their way into the captains’ quarters. It is believed the captains circulated rumours that bananas were bad luck in an attempt to keep unwanted exotics off the ship.

 An urban myth propagated by those opposed to the formation of the European Union is that the European Commission had decreed that bananas destined for the European market must be straight, not curved as nature intended. This myth originates from one aspect of EU Regulation 2257/94 that states that ‘bananas must be free from malformation or excessive curvature of the fingers”.

In fact the European Commission was asked by national agriculture ministers and the banana industry to draft legislation to establish uniform banana quality standards, and did so after extensive consultation with the industry. There are in excess of 500 banana varieties in the world. They come in all shapes and sizes, from small finger fruits to purple plantains. Bananas are harvested green because they keep ripening even after they are picked. Unlike most other fruits that grow on trees, bananas grow on plants. The phrase 'going bananas' was first recorded in the Oxford English Dictionary, and is linked to the fruit's 'comic' connections with monkeys.
