You know exactly what you are getting before you even touch the thing. The skin colour tells everything: is your banana only just sweet, quite sweet or sticky-sweet? Firm or soft? You always can tell. A banana never surprises or disappointments, while apples, oranges, peaches, pears, pie and people deceive us (indeed often seem determined to do so) with chronic frequency. Plus there's that removable leatherette cladding with integral hand grip, the ergonomic shape and oh that clever mount design (the bunches). Pick a joined pair or a six-pack. The bananas don't complain. Any creature, male or female, always appears to be having a good time when eating a banana. Kids and chimps especially. The banana is Truth Made Flesh. Veracity Incarnate. Now for ten points, which 60s LSD-inspired smash hit claimed that "electrical banana is gonna be a sudden craze"?
