Root Beer and Bananas

Root Beer and Bananas, bad combination?  You bet!  Unless you are already an unfortunate victim of this combination like myself, then take heed to this important message!

Root beer and bananas should never be eaten at the same time without ice cream.  If you want to partake in this delicacy be forewarned.  This ice cream shop faire must be eaten in front of a sink or inside a shower to prevent the disaster that awaited me.

It’s a chemical reaction!  I’m not a chemist, but I’m sure this is a potent combination of explosive elements.  If you want cheeks like Louis Armstrong or Dizzy Gillespie then follow these simple steps.

1. Peel and eat a banana.
2. While your mouth is full of banana, drink root beer.
3. See how long you can keep your mouth closed.
4. Clean up the area directly in front of you.
5. Shower.
