P and bananas, real life

So, I'm riding a bus into the city,--- I love buses and
listening to people when they talk---and I overhear this
discussion from two of our society's preterites,
one, talking big, maybe, about 'throwing away' his high income job and
now heading to the city to try to hustle a few bucks, when
he notices a banana in the inner coat pocket of the other.

 "Bananas are good and they can heal bruises if you rub them on them."

"Yea, lotsa therapeutic properties to bananas"

"And full of all kinds of vitamins and minerals, real healthy---like all 
fruit---
but better than most to eat"
