What to expect
A banana is easy to carry or include in a recipe. When comparing whole fruit, a drink and a banana pastry, examine the entire product. The same fruit does not make them nutritionally identical.
Two uses, two meals
Carry a whole banana or slice one into yoghurt with oats. The second is a food combination; it does not prove that a banana alone is insufficient for everybody. Choose the format suited to the planned occasion and other available foods instead of permanently labelling it “fattening”.
EXAMPLE / HOW TO USE IT
An example to adapt
Use a ripe banana in a homemade preparation chosen for taste. Note the other ingredients instead of assigning the whole dish’s value to the fruit.
