We buy bananas every other day in Sibulan.  Some are nice ripe eating bananas, for me.  Some are BananaQ for Yvonne.  Yummmmmy.  Too bad you aren't getting any.  But to be honest, its been 2 or 3 days since we looked for any.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm :angry:  I am wondering now after only 2 replies if My Wife should spread her wings a little more instead of visiting the same old haunts. Seems there are plenty in the Supermarkets too according to my neighbour but at what cost? and this is where I think my lady goes wrong sometimes. Cost - versus happy Husband  :7_4_17[1]:

Actually getting the green eating bananas has not been that easy here lately. You can get yellow ones which really need eating the same day.

Plenty here in CDO. Obviously Negros Oriental are exporting yours to Sibulan, Upper Occidental and us here in Misamis Oriental! :)

And very nice they are too. Thanks!

 AYE! It is the green ones I particularly like, as well as keeping for a few days they are actually more beneficial to the body, Good for detoxing I read.
