That is how apes open bananas too.

Not that I'm implying anything of course.

See? The experts agree with me. Your bananas are upside down, not mine.

As someone who also has to argue about how wrong everyone else is...

I always tell them to imagine the iconic 'slipping on a banana peel' joke. Sometimes I make them draw it.

If you peel from the stem, it would never look like that. We have so many references that I challenge anyone to show me any media from any time period that shows the banana opened from the stem.

People learn the stem way as children because it's easier with limited motor skills and just never give it up.

I looked into this and was unable to find quality evidence of such. I also open my bananas from the bananus

Technically, humans or homo sapiens sapiens are apes.
