okay, I wouldn't call a banana an "herb" but it does come from an herbaceous plant, just like a carrot:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbaceous_plant

Quote:
A herbaceous plant (in botanical use simply herb) is a plant that has leaves and stems that die down at the end of the growing season to the soil level. They have no persistent woody stem above ground.[1] Herbaceous plants may be annuals, biennials or perennials.[2]
am learning much! (sick at home today)

I heard the clone thing and the disappearing thing. But I also heard the disappearing thing is a myth and that there are tons of varieties out there, and that they would just have to plant new ones but it would take a while to ramp up.

Spiders live everywhere. Or are the banana plants in league with them? Shh, she's comng, quick, hide in my herby folds and jump out when I wiggle my left banana. No, the other left..... well put one leg behind each banana then. Srsly, you're too slow, she's gone already.... why don't you weave a web in my fronds that says something special. like "whale penis". That'll get her good.....

Fridge Spiders would be a useful weight loss tool. Anyone up for a little genetic tinkering?

I came to believe that pineapples were citrus because they were one of the flavors in Citrus Lifesavers.
