Redditor squatch1217 shows off his backyard banana harvest. He says that in central California, frost usually destroys bananas before the fruit reaches maturity, but this year he got lucky. Amidst the phallic references and jokes about using a banana for scale, commenters have decided that this is not necessarily a runt, but a banana that's a different variety from the Cavendish bananas we are used to. Squatch1217 says they are delicious, and about two bites each. He has at least 100 of them, so he might make banana bread. That may sound appealing, but it will take a lot of peeling.

"Big Banana" enforced the rumor that bananas cannot grow outside of the tropics. That was still taught into the 1980s. A friend's son had to bring a bunch from their garden to class as a way to prove his teacher was wrong.
