I love 'em. I prefer my bananas warm but not mushy. This allows me to carry bananas in a warm spot--the front of my bibs--without getting squished. Seem to get some odd looks, though.

Shouldn't one end be open if it's really going to protect your banana? The thing's gotta breathe, after all.

Imagine whipping that thing out at work or in a group ride of mixed company.

You'd probably get fired for harassment if you gift wrapped it and gave it to a co-worker as a holiday gift. "What's the problem, Boss? I didn't even mention the word 'Christmas' ?"
