Awesome Products: Banana Guard

I've decided to start my blog "In Search of Awesome" on a personal note. Several years ago, my aunt introduced my family to the awesome-ness that is the "Banana Guard". Everyone got one for Christmas, and oh what a gift to remember!

What is a Banana Guard you may ask? Well, it is used to protect your banana from banana trauma.

Don't leave home without it!

I was previously unaware of the trauma that bananas had to endure on a daily basis as a result of being stuffed in backpacks and lunch sacs. Never fear though! This magical device fits over 90% of commercially available bananas, according to its makers over at BananaGuard.com.

Protect your banana from bruising while keeping it fresh with the specially designed ventilation holes. Also available in a variety of colors for the more fashionable connoisseur of banana protection.

My Aunt gave us our banana guards filled with candy, but please remember these instructions found on the FAQ page of the manufacturer's website:

Q: "Is there a battery attachment?"
A: No. The Banana Guard was designed for its intended purpose only as a device to prevent banana trauma during transport. 

Inspired by awesome things. Awesome books, awesome history, awesome recipes, awesome sausum.
