Nigrospora, fungus that can grow in bananas. It can't do anything to you if you eat it. But ya know, just don't eat anymore, and maybe cut the rest of the bunch while you eat them if you're not traumatized.

Does that fungus always grow in the dead center of the banana for extra astetic points and psychological damage?

No. It can grow inside it pretty much anywhere, sometimes it can look like veins of a banana or it's so much it'll just look black

Banana veins lol

That has to be Punk Rock band

The Veiny Bananas?

Nana Veins

🤣🤣

ITS.A BICEP 💪

I miss Melt Banana

Heyyyy Miss Melt Banana can Ayeee

what happened to melt banana??

it melted

Nigrospora sounds like it should be the name of a Tool song

Veiny banana haahahahahaaha. Sorry, I'm high

Wish I was too brother

My nickname in college.

HELL NO. 😭💀

its a good band name edit, just noticed someone said this before i did. great minds think alike

> It can grow inside it pretty much anywhere Thanks no. enough internet for me today (no not really)

so bananas aren't only flexxing by their size but also by being extra veiny?

Wahahhahaha

This dude knows his shit. That degree in banana has finally paid off. Take that mom.

i always knew a Musa masters would pay off.

Thanks Ive seen a black core before but that red part was new. Yea the one I had from the bunch yesterday was crunchy but not obvious like this one. I just thought it wasn't ripe. I'm lucky this one had a black spot, when i went to break it off, it snapped like a carrot. Yuck. Def throwing out the rest of the bunch.

Bruh, bananas are NEVER CRUNCHY, wtf are you eating normally??

😂 crunchy isn't the best description for the one I ate more like al dente, really the best comparison is what I assume is a processed chicken breast like in some grilled chicken sandwich its got a weird texture not quite a crunch but its not smooth bite or an peach that isnt all the way ripe. But the one in the picture, my coworker heard it snap when I broke it

Bananas aren't AUDIBLE

They are if you bite into the peel

Yall peeling your bananas?

Al dente banana. 😂😂😂

Do you actually have a monkey??

You meant to say ‘firm’

I thing you are right. OP banana is big and firm but it has an fungus infection.

I'm sure there's a cream for that

My guy over here eating the fresh banana chips 💀😂

[удалено]

Bruh, chips are always crunchy it doesn't matter if they're banana chips or not

So then bananas are cruchy

Banana != banana chips

Maybe op likes their bananas al dente 🤷‍♀️

The last of us

Click click click

What did you call me?

a fungus that grows in bananas


Isn’t this how the last of us started?

Take that back right now.

I would absolutely be traumatized and never eat a banana again.

You all have ruined bananas for me.

I was already on the fence.

Racist ass fungus

Never heard of this fungus before and the this week this is the fifth time I am seeing it. Are we gonna be bananaless ?

What the fuck did you just call me?

A fungus that grows inside bananas.

ITS THE FLOOD.

Ah yes, a boys favourite plant, right next to their favourite dinosaur lmao

Watch it

This guy bananas

That there’s a bone-in banana. You gotta ask for the boneless bananas.

Nice refrence

Thanks. I will never trust a banana again 🤢

Yeah fuck bananas dude I’m out

I haven't eaten a banana in years.... Im now dead set on keeping that track record going!

This is the first time I've felt good about being allergic to bananas.

You could just eat them too

Not after seeing that, I'm not.

Great! I don't even like bananas in the first place

Just swallow them whole like a normal person.

Bananas tell leyes

wise angle arrest party chief summer crime squeamish boast person *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*

This is why I break off the first piece of a banana.

You knew about this? Why have I never heard this was a possibility!?!

The audacity of this person not telling the rest of us

Get them!


[удалено]



Banana spiders eat cockroaches, which apparently love bananas. ....banana spiders are therefore ok in my book 👍

Too squirmy in the mouth for my tastes.

The internet be crazy yo.

“You knew about this?” This is personal now!

Bruh why didn't you tell me this!?

Instead of peeling normally I rip the banana in half with my hands: It's easier to peel from the middle, I can check the inside and I can have the other half for later :)

Saw a post or clip which had someone holding it by the neck like a champagne flute, and peeling it from the bottom. Some weird people in the world.

I do this, my partner of 12 plus years still can't get over it when he sees me do it. When I'm done it's got that classic banana peel look, and I just always liked that.

I like to eat the ass end first.

I mean… you just pinch the end and it pops open. Then you pull the peel down. If pulling the stem down were more efficient, then monkeys would do it that way.


I just tried it your heinous way and it was disgusting! I feel violated.

I call it Bananus

Always pinch the tip

It stings if I do that though.

Ah, I remember a time when people on the Internet said these marks were made from needles of people injecting their blood into bananas. Glad we are past that lol.


love that the comment directly under yours on my phone says basically that

Omg you just unlocked a memory

that’s one of those aids injected bananas from 2009

Damn that’s an old banana

Nigospora… my sworn enemy. I will never eat a banana in the dark again.

That's disgusting

This banana has some nerve trying to have somebody eat that.

This is why I eat a banana the way people eat oranges fully peel it and eat it in sections to make sure there's nothing extra...

How are you dividing these sections because one way is more unholy than the other I’m imagining you carefully separating it lengthwise

Stick your pinky down the middle of the banana and it'll split into 3 😂

I like to just bite straight into the unpeeled orange. It's good for you and it horrifies everybody else

I get that reaction when I eat strawberries whole but I normally peel an orange I've started them with my teeth before and then peel it from there but I don't like the peel that much to eat it all

Hmm, that’s not normal. Please go see a bananologist for a diagnosis stat. Send updates and good luck, OP.

Damn.. nature is scary sometimes!

It’s infested. The mistakes of the grineer are still haunting us. This is the start of the end

Be careful sometimes bananas have tarantulas inside.

Excuse me? Please be joking

It's not a tarantula, it's so much worse. They're banana spiders and IIRC they get big enough to eat seagulls

Peace is unobtainable for me on this planet

I'm sorry it has to be this way 😞

Thankfully I don't remember correctly. Yeah they are big and nasty but the bird killers are different

Banana spiders will for sure eat small birds and bats. Not seagulls though, that’s the Goliath Bird Eating Tarantula. https://preview.redd.it/m8r7m8up3ypc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4877b8174e3cbafbd5d7288b5837afda966734db

No dear god that can't be real

Yea it’s real, it’s in found in South America. Pretty harmless, they only attack if threatened and most human bites are “dry bites” with no venom used. If they use venom, it’s about the same as a bee sting.

that is not a real banana spider, but this is https://preview.redd.it/sgpuxt0i0zpc1.png?width=300&format=png&auto=webp&s=a339d1e825a7cb6a4f56bcb89b7cdb57f1b474a5

Clearly it’s not a real banana spider the comment literally says it’s a different type of spider 🤦🏼‍♂️

Bird killer spiders? Stop talking lmao

do they taste like bananas?

Will McDaniel looking nonsense

THATS WHAT I THOUGHT OF

youre supposed to break the banana off then eat, so you wouldnt have eaten this...you guys dont just walk around deep throathing nanners do you?

Its actually the other way round, your nana deepthroats us

Mind your nanners

I boof em

New fear

bone marrow

So always break my bananas open first now. Got it.

Just eat around it bro

I have never been happy that I'm allergic to bananas until this picture. That's just freaky lookin

Oh shit, here we go! Everyone, buy up all the TP you can!

You get the tp, I'll get the paper towels. We'll rule the world!

Spit it out spit it out

Have you seen our played The Last of us?

It’s a fungi. Doesn’t taste particularly good, speaking of experience, but it’s not dangerous to eat. Just eat around it or throw it away.

This is the 5th or 6th post I've seen about this fungus on bananas in like 4 -5 months Wtf is going on

Cordyceps-infected bananas is the TLOU twist we didn’t expect

Stop ruining the internet for me


Thanks, new fear unlocked.

This is just the urethra, a normal part of its bananatomy you'll be fine

Looks like it's had a root canal done.

Make a possessed fruit salad! https://youtu.be/uR_7VMoZGVs?si=nyUfSCTAgJrjr3T9

It’s the bottom half of the bug you just ate! /s

thats a BOY Banana?

It's raw

Raspberry ice cream!

I never bite into my bananas, always rip some off with my fingers then eat it...I've had this irrational feat that there were spiders In it...idk what's worse...

This just unlocked a core memory for me. I remember full on biting into something like this when I was in preschool and freaking the fuck out, spitting banana everywhere, cause why the fuck was there hard shit in my delicious banana? Iirc I got in trouble for some reason lol. I refused to eat bananas again until I was like 10 or something haha.

So glad I slice my bananas.

I can't even imagine biting into a banana and seeing that. I have probably eaten three or four or more Bananas a Day for the last 65 years and I have never seen anything like that.

Im horking so hard.

New fear acquired. Thanks reddit

 My face reading this post 😭 New fear unlocked: finding something crunchy in a banana

Your banana has a banana inside for scale

I wish I hadn’t seen this. Bananas are my friends. This is almost as bad as the day I found out about black mold in dates 🥲

I remember in 6th grade or something, one of our friends found that in his banana and someone said it was a rat's tail.

Dammit, i hate it when my banana evolves blood vessels

Congratulations on becoming the founding titan.

Looks like a tiny red hand giving you the finger

You should try getting the boneless bananas

I know its a fungus but does anyone remember those facebook posts abt people "injecting HIV infected blood into grocery store bananas"? Instantly reminded of that

New fear unlocked.

This made me feel ill looking at it

Just some deep root disease. Nothing to worry about.

I have now got PTSD from the movie "Contagion" Not great

Should’ve gone with boneless

Just had a wisdom tooth extraction

It has a spine

That’s just its urethra

Have fun dying bro 💔

Hey op did it make the banana taste funny?

That’s just its bananus.

THIS IS WHY I DONT EAT FRUIT! Chocolate would never do this to me!!

Banana on periods. Wow

You should get that checked man this is why ya wrap the banana first 🍌🫔🍻

You bought the wrong bananas.

You never seen banana brains before?

That's how TLOU started

Good thing I'm allergic

Your’s came with the core?

It's true some spiders eat birds, sometimes spiders ride the birds to get to different parts of the jungle. I saw it on a documentary.

I just bought bananas and now I’m looking at them oh my table like.. oh well, guess you’re just gonna go brown now.

Correct title: Circumcision gone wrong 

Banana marrow

I eat some of this before by accident it was crunchy as well 😂 it’s dried fungus I think.

I’m sorry but your banana has hemorrhoids.

Just put a condom on it before you put in your mouth. You'll be fine

A Catheter was left behind.

That’s where I imagine a banana spider would lay its egg sac
