Bananas are a known easy fruit to munch on to keep healthy. It's easy to open, easy to carry around, and it fills you up while providing you with some good nutrition. And if you need tips on how to peel a banana, then we feel truly sorry for you.

However, there is hope for you fruit aliens yet. Here's a kitchen tool designed to prep a banana - This monkey-faced peeler helps you open a banana, peel it, and remove those long strands of cellulose things (even though they're totally edible and does not affect the taste of your banana). This peeler also has a scoop to remove brown spots (which is also edible).

So who, you may ask, would buy this piece of kitchen crap? That's probably what its makers are asking, hoping that city folk whose bare fingers aren't good enough to figure out the science behind peeling the tropical fruit would turn to this $5 peeler for some major help.
