Q: what should i do if my banana begins to swell up and change colors?
A: Are you sure we're talking about the same fruit here? We've never seen a banana swell up...but the color-changing bit doesn't sound good. We'd throw that one out.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Here's a freebie for your concern. The Plantain Protector.

Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Is lubrication recommended for really large bananas?
A: If you have to lubricate your banana to get it into the Banana Bunker, you're probably going to have a tough time eating it without it getting away from you.

Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: I am quite fond of baby bananas or "manzanos," so named because they resemble the hands of small children--plump and short. Would you advise against squeezing multiple manzanos in the Banana Bunker?

Q: Will this fit inside my goat fur thong?
A: Unfortunately, that's a question we can't answer with any degree of certainty. It will depend on the size of the garment in question, the stretch of the fabric, and the number of additional items stored along with the Banana Bunker.

If not, we suggest you pick up a Recycled Sailcloth Bag instead.

Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: How long will a banana last if kept in there? Would it be wise to separate the bananas from the bunch and put each one in a separate Banana Bunker?
A: We haven't tested how long bananas will keep if stored in the Banana Bunker. Since both ends are open, we'd guess a banana would last as long as it would if it weren't in the bunker. How ripe the bananas are at the time of purchase would be a factor to how long they last.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: If my Banana Bunker breaks in use, do I need to worry about little bananas running around?
A: We're glad you're thinking about safe banana protection. Bananas don't have seeds, so even if the Banana Bunker breaks and the banana peel breaks open, more bananas won't sprout up. For more bananas to grow, you'd have to plant part of an existing banana tree. It's unlikely that you could "accidentally" go through the effort of planting a banana tree, so you should be safe.

Q: So hypothetically speaking, if my Banana was stuck in the Banana Bunker, what would be the best possible way of removal if I can't separate the top half?

Q: I've seen a similar product called BananaGuard. Which is more functional?
A: The Banana Bunker is way more functional! The Banana Bunker is open at both ends (unlike the Banana Guard), so that even the longest bananas can be accommodated. Furthermore, the Banana Bunker is "ribbed" for flexibility. This allows the protective bunker to conform to the unique curve of every banana. The loser Banana Guard cannot bend, which means that if your banana doesn't fit its set shape, you're out of luck.
