I own one, and it works really well. And yes, I used to get tons of funny looks and comments from co-workers. But shit, son, it WORKS!

I still don't get why it's ribbed?? How about just a clear, smooth case, instead of something that just came from Good Vibrations.

I saw this thing in the MoMA section of HSN.com today.

Frankly, I was more stunned that the HOME SHOPPING NETWORK is selling items from the MoMA catalog.

I have seen so many of these stupid banana carrying cases in catalogs geared toward parents. The same catalogs that sell you visors to put on your kids head during bathtime so he/she doesn't get water or soap -- gasp!! -- in his/her eyes. The pitch is that these cheap plastic dildos keep the bananas from getting squished. A DON'T YOU JUST HATE IT WHEN THAT HAPPENS? kind of thing. There are also banana slicers on the market to help moms avoid the pesky task of using a knife over and over and over again to slice the banana. People will buy anything!

@cdjill: At my cousin's baby shower last weekend, I was appalled to learn of the existance of baby wipe warmers. Because the poor widdle babies can't be exposed to the coolness of the baby wipes. Our society really coddles and pampers children; it's pathetic.

What's crazy is that it seems like it could be BOTH a fake penis and a fake vagina.

The permutations are...fascinating.

This is definitely the hitachi magic wand of fruit containers.

I would like to eat bananas more often but whenever I buy them I have to throw some away because they expire so quickly. I live alone so I am the only banana-eater around, but I don't want to go to the store every single day to buy one banana. I try to buy three or four at a time, picking a very unripe, a more ripe, and a nearly ripe one so each banana is eaten at it's peak, but it almost never works. :(
Sorry, just thinkin' 'bout 'nanas.

@SarahMC: BANANA BREAD. You get the best flavor when the 'nanas have turned totally black.

@SarahMC: You could always freeze them. That way you can take one with you to work, it will unthaw on your way there and be ready for snacking! Or you can store them in those green bag things they sell in infomercials.

Is it ribbed in the middle so it can stretch for larger sized bananas?

Dudes, I have totally seen these before- commonly. Was it here or in Australia? I don't remember. Anyway, the ones I recall are bright blue plastic and shaped more like a banana (curved, with a stem) than like a dildo (erect, with some kinda hand grip [wtf?]. Anyway, they are totally useful because smooshed banana...ewww.

Once I got picked on in fourth grade because my yogurt container exploded in my bag and covered all my books and smelt gross.. so yeah, this would have prevented similar banana related teasing.

I keep repeating "bananas already come in a case" in my head! They DO come in a case, but said cases are very inefficient and do not provide adequate protection.

I just linked this to two of my friends. Reaction number one: "Almost as bad as the Harry Potter vibrating flying broom ([www.realitywired.com])." Reaction number two: "This is why I'm losing faith in the human race. You know what? Bananas come in their own, all-natural, bio-degradable packaging. It's called the PEEL."

Somebody took a trip to the store that sells Wonder Woman's invisible sex toys.
