Wow! I never thought someone will market a product to make sure we can enjoy nice bananas (not squashed or bruised) at work or in school.

sms,
If it's not the fruit being protected, the product name would be something else.

"I've heard that Asian bananas are smaller so fit shouldn't be a problem." -sms

hmm, hearsay sounds a bit defensive to me; can't imagine someone being here for so long without seeing an actual Asian banana!

"sms, If it's not the fruit being protected, the product name would be something else."

well, they do call this product the "banana hammock," but it surely is not designed so that the fruit can relax and sway with the wind

Why would I be defensive?

I had three different varieties of Asian bananas growing in my back yard in Seletar Camp for years. But, as I haven't seen western bananas in quite a few years, due to being here for over a quarter of a century, I'm not sure what is in the western supermarkets there today.

I, Like Forks, would appeciate it if someone could inform me what a "Banana Guard" is - Never heard of it before.

Sorry!

Couldn't resist as we've already made a shambles out of the thread in general.

Hubby hasn't tried it yet--but my mother certainly LOVED taking hers to work in the US. Boy, she's never been so popular.

And it works perfectly--no more squished banana!
