Bananagram Two

Please note: this entry is part of a series that probably wont make much sense if you haven't read the first entry, Perfect Omnivore.

After the remarkable success of my banana-tinted raspberry smoothie, I decided to try a similar course but with more risk. Returning to Jamba Juice I scanned the menu for something that actually listed "banana" as a name ingredient, rather than a side effect. To my great delight, they had the perfect concoction: the Banana-Chocolate-Peanut Butter shake, a whole different grade of ordinance in my war against dislike.

 The consumption of this food was a peculiar experience all its own. I found myself enjoying the flavor; rich, smooth, familiar peanut butter-chocolate with a central core of sweet, ripe fruit. I suspect that the banana accounted for the superlative texture. All the same, about halfway through I felt my body balking. Missives arrived from my stomach saying We know what you're doing and we don't totally approve. I begin to wonder if there mightn't be a physiological concern that results in my extremely visceral reaction to straight banana.

In any case, I've cleared Stage Two with fair success. Time, I think, to go straight to the source and eat my first banana in fifteen years. Stay tuned.
