Sincerely still not over the fact that “fake banana flavor” is actually
based on a type of banana everyone used to eat but it got wiped out in the
1960s. And for FIFTY YEARS we as a society are like nah it’s cool we don’t
need to update the fake flavor to match the new bananas???

And this is where the 'slippery banana' notion was born, not as true with
the current strain.

America fanfic and I just adore you
