I completely agree. I revisit them every year or two to see if my tastes have changed, but I still gag when somebody peels a banana anywhere near me. It’s an automatic involuntary reaction. They are the only food I can think of that give me an immediate gag relfex.

For example, I can be sitting at one end of a train, and I can tell when someone on the opposite side of the train starts eating a banana. I have to put my face in my shirt to stop myself from puking. I wish I liked them, they’re so freaking healthy, but nope can’t do it.

    Totally. The smell is awful, ive always associated it with smell of an ripe bag of garbage. I don't know if it's because bananas just smell bad, or because the smell of old banana peel in the trash is the scent that I notice the most, but it's not a good association.
