A coworker at lunch yesterday was opening a banana, and I mentioned to her banana opening is surprisingly easy when doing like monkeys to: from the bottom.   Many years ago, I saw a primate at a zoo opening a banana not the way most humans do from the stem but from the opposite end, and since then I’ve adopted this more efficient method.   I figured primates ought to know a thing or two about bananas.

Today, as I was looking through Lifehacker’s recent articles in Google Reader, I came across this video:

If you don’t already use this method, learn something from our primate cousins and try it out next time you’re eating a banana.   Human see, human do.
