Banana slug.
I hate you so much.
It’s not ripe yet. Sure, the green is gone, but the brown spots haven’t started to show up yet.
Gross! Everyone knows bananananananananas are best when there’s still a bit of green.
Needs more spiders
Their flavour is probably based on the Gros Michel variety of bananas, which was mostly wiped out by a blight in the 1950s. Most bananas these days are the Cavendish variety, which doesn’t taste the same.
Are these the ones that produce epic levels of mucus as defense? I saw a video once of a frog try to eat one of those and it eventually gave up after its mouth was so full of mucus it couldn’t swallow
it was a snake, the slime from the slug clogged the snakes mouth.
What about with rice?
Banana slug mucus makes your tongue go numb, and they aren’t half bad when cooked/cleaned properly! (I went to a living history camp as a kid)
Fiat Slug!
So there was actually a hint of banana?
Hrm, but not 1/10? Good to know... 😋
Mmm now i got rat lungworm 😋
Banana [slug] for scale.
Sludge Life reference
Needs salt
Enjoy your rat lungworm :)

You have to be a parasite for that, not have a parasite.
