I would be afraid to choke on the peel, plus it would not taste very good.

I don’t actually eat the peel, but I wanted to vote for it. It sounds gross

“Dopamine is also synthesized in the process of banana riping/fermentation. Back in elementary school, I had a friend who was often high in the morning. I never really understand why until now… He told me once that he eats whole bananas, i.e. including the peel and skin, for breakfast! So, next time if you need a happy booster, just blend a “whole” ripe banana smoothie!”

This thread made me crave bananas. I just made plain oatmeal with mashed banana in it without the peel.

Magnesium helps you sleep

Eating the peel is… different. I’ve tasted the peel before and it’s pretty bitter.

I don’t eat the whole peel but I scrape off the inside of the peel with my teeth wen I cn b bothered.

Do you mean scraping insides of the peel? You can probably can get away with that. Otherwise I think it’s absolutely unhygienic to eat outside of the peel. I’d probably look for some other source of those minerals :grin:
