So those who knows me will eventually discover my truly unorthodox technique for eating a banana.  Not only do I peel it from the "wrong" end, ie, non-stem end, so the stem part can be used as a handle, I also peel the whole thing with my teeth.  So it's more than just peeling from the different end, it's so how the peeling is done.

Apparently, deciding which end of the banana you peel from is heavily influence by culture and upbringing, I read this article saying how the whole thing is one big paradigm.  In Western cultures, people peel from the stem, but elsewhere, peeling from other end is the norm.

Me?  I'm just messed up!
