This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

I desperately need them to swap positions of the two bananas on the left.
I need them to flip the whole thing. Green bananas are best bananas, and you use the ones that have overripened in your chartreuse-fueled negligence to hastily make banana bread in an effort to excuse yourself. Repeat forever.
Then you would LOVE the grocery store were I live. You can choose between green, green and green bananas, I haven't seen them sell a even slightly yellow one for years, even the greenest one here is to yellow.
Have you ever had the chance to try plantains? They're a bit like bananas but for cooking and while they can be used yellow, generally they are used green.
I think I've had them once or twice and found them ok? But that was eating them like a banana. If they're more intended for cooking, that may require another attempt..
Yeah they're only ever really used cooked. (I gather that they aren't nearly as nice to eat raw and might make your stomach a bit upset if eaten raw but possibly are not actively bad for you like eating a raw potato is.) Cooked they're pretty nice. Kinda like if a banana thought it was a potato.
