I need a 12-step program for Banana Babies addiction. I can’t stop eating them. I’ve always “liked” frozen bananas, but yours are different, you guys know that already. I had 2 banana babies for dinner tonight. And, one for lunch. Ok, I had one in between, too. That’s right, I’ve eaten nothing but banana babies today. I’ve already set my alarm for 10 minutes earlier than normal so that I have time to stop by Publix in the morning for more before work. Thank you, Diana’s Bananas, for giving me something healthy to obsess over. I haven’t obsessed like this since the Great Potato Skin Addiction of ‘06. Thankfully, your bananas aren’t going to make me gain 15 pounds and increase my cholesterol levels. I appreciate that. Your biggest fan, Brandy

This came to us thru the “Contact Us” part of our website.  What a great surprise.

“I wanted to let you know that I LOVE the dark chocolate covered banana’s. I have been averaging 5 bananas a day. I’ve never been known for my moderation! I convinced myself that it is a health food because it is a real banana, and dark chocolate has antioxidants. Seriously, I have suffered from migraine headaches for years. I know they say chocolate is not good for migraines, but my migraines have been better since I have been eating these. It could just be a huge coinsidence, but I think the large amount of potassium have impacted things.
Hope you continue to make these forever!!
Thanks…”

From a friend at Watermelonwaistline.com

I know, I know – that doesn’t sound like a healthy food recommendation at all. And it’s definitely not steamed broccoli, but sometimes you need a little something sweet. On those occasions, allow me to suggest a dark chocolate-covered frozen banana!

I’m a bit obsessed with these. I never had them as a child, and the idea of a frozen banana sounded a bit odd to me at one time.

And then I watched Arrested Development (best. show. ever.) and after hearing about The Banana Stand so much, I felt compelled to try a chocolate-covered banana. Boy was I not disappointed! (more…)
