...zero mess? What exactly are you doing with the "wrapper?" You know you're not supposed to eat it, right?

[–] magic_lobster_party@fedia.io 86 points 4 weeks ago

Throw it on the ground as a trap for the one walking behind you

[–] _edge@discuss.tchncs.de 21 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

You can eat it. Proof: me.

I'm calling the cops.

You can absolutely eat banana peels, cooked or raw. They're full of fiber, antioxidants, all your basic fruit goodness. I don't eat them, but I understand the people who do.

I imagine they'd be chock full of pesticides tho

[–] SorryQuick@lemmy.ca -1 points 4 weeks ago

Though generally with fruits the added amount of vitamins and all the good stuff that’s concentrated in the skin far outweighs the small amount of pesticides you might consume.

Just throw it behind your kart to slow down your opponents

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 11 points 4 weeks ago

I prefer to accidentally throw it in front of my own kart.

The silver lining is that it's biodegradable. And good as compost
