Bananas can replace egg when baking desserts. 34 grams of banana per one egg is perfect btw.

One bad thing is that you can't have them near other fruit because they will make all the other fruit ripen way faster than it should, that's why your fruit bowls suck and you have to replace your non banana fruit often.

My GI tract always hates bananas, for whatever reason. That's my main con.

even one bite makes gives me such an insane stomach pain and nausea that I'm crying in my bed for three days. and it's not stomach cramps, it just feels like my entire belly will explode and nothing comes out. years ago i could eat them just fine, but now it's also pears and berries...

Get an allergy test. Banana allergies (even though that doesn't necessarily sound like one) are associated with other allergies,including some medications.

So...you might want to know in advance.

If it is not that then try biobananas once. A lot of people are sensitive to the pesticides used.

It's funny that the "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" banana/potassium line is still being passed around as fact.
