I'm sorry that I didn't post it last week. I was just so caught up with kids' camp! cat_sweatdrop
And then there's the downtime and then the new mini-house plans and then the... aw, fluff buckets. I'd better get this out of the way. cat_xp

Anyway, this week's topic is... BANANAS! cat_biggrin


*crickets chirping*

I prefer mine a bit under-ripe, so they aren't too sweet. They taste better under-ripe.

Anyway, it's hard to think of "banana" without thinking of those Minions they have plastered everywhere these days. Walmart employees have the patience of saints. For reals... I like em, but product placement gets old quick. I'm sick of em being everywhere. Not even Swiffer Sweepers are safe from their faces... Those walking, talking Twinkies in overalls and goggles... sweatdrop

I LOVE bananas. My favorite fruit, and that's saying something because I really love fruit.

The best banana (to me) is when it's vibrantly yellow without any trace of green, just before it starts going brown. It's at its flavorful peak then. emotion_drool

I don't work in Walmart, but our store has Minions everywhere, too. Even on the bananas. Chiquita has been putting Minion stickers on its bananas for months now, and it's always kinda cute when I'm stocking them and a little kid happens to see the stickers and gets all excited about it. There was this one little Japanese boy shopping with his family who looked to be about 3-4 years old, speaking fluently enough in Japanese that I was absolutely lost in what any of them were saying until I heard the awed utterance of "Ooh! Mih-nee-ohn!" come from him. I'm not normally a fan of kids, but that was darling. whee

The Minion overload is probably going to last for a few months more since their movie just came out a few weeks ago.

Probably the next "product placement" feature to capture companies interest will either be the Peanuts movie or the new Star Wars movie. They'll be able to appeal to a wide range of generations with those two. The other big hits are mostly focused on just one particular audience and don't have as big of a fan base.
