If we were "woke" and lived in the USA, Harry would be our emotional support animal. About the banana skins, perhaps it was you or someone else, but I remember seeing a post about mock bacon made from them. That didn't turn me on because I don't like meat or meat-ish things.
However, I was interested to know that they can be/are edible. My only problem with that is that Suriname is a modern country that loves to use pesticide, fungicide, and herbicide. Because banana skins are soft and porous, I'd only be willing to try eating banana skins that came from a tree I watched grow.
