What happens when you bruise a banana?

[Ladios]

I'm eating a banana right now. It is very delicious and provides necessary vitamins and nutrients for aiding in the dispelling of this nasty cold I have had for the past 8 days. As I was walking up the stairs to go eat it, I dropped it. Exactly where it hit the stairs I discovered was bruised after I pealed it. Already, just seconds after I had dropped it, my banana had become browner in the one spot. To see if the reaction was really this fast, I put the skin of the banana back against part of it and flicked it repeatedly. When I pulled the skin back again I noticed that immediately there was a bruise visible. I am now curious as to what exactly takes places when a banana bruises, the chemical and structual changes in the fruit. Does anyone know?

Hmmm, I didn't even think of snake until you mentioned it. I was thinking of what happens when a banana bruises.

After working out I drink a protein shake. I ran out of strawberries so I put in two bananas instead of one this morning.

I can never drink those. I only have ever treid one that I liked. Protein smoothies work as well and taste much better but I have no idea how the forget to make them and the only place that sold them nearby went out of business (loving recession D:)

They don't taste bad if you add fruit. That's really all you need to do.

Meh, it's mainly the powdery aftertaste that gets me.
