Has anyone found a banana that won't fit in their banana guard? Thom has been using mine pretty much every day this summer and I am constantly amazed that every single banana fits.
They must have done an intense banana study.

Ok, I admit...what is a banana guard. I assume it is exactly what the title implies...but I am still lost!

I thought someone had revived the old thread about what this product looked like.

We actually sell these things. You should see the look on a customer when they see them for the first time - very, very funny.

Sorry katluvr, let me explain my prior comment.
A couple of years ago, there was a thread about these things...and suffice it to say it became quite a topic...many were either entertained or offended.

Maybe the banana guard is able to dynamically adapt to various sizes of bananas....
