My workmate & I wondered about this a few days ago. I chewed a piece of uncooked skin of a fully ripe banana and found the taste to be fairly bitter. It is fibrous. The mouth is left feeling dry. The overall taste is not pleasant. I did not want to eat more of it. I did not swallow it. I tried steaming some for 4 minutes. The fibrous element almost disappeared. The taste did not improve, however it smelt good. Strong smell of banana icecream. I decide not to swallow it.
Bannana skins are only poisonous if you eat a large quantity. They are not posisonous once they have been dried out. People will often dry out bannana skins to try and smoke them. This is often hyped up and whilst a small high can be acheived over a length of time the results are always dissapointing! :/
no no well why would they. monkeys are like the closest animal to humans and wouldn't eat banana peels just like we don't!!!!
Monkeys open bananas upside down though.
No you can't get sick from eatin a banana skin because it will taste bad in your mouth.

No. It is not humanly possible to fry a human being's skin. And if it was possible, it would hurt terribly.
A banana skin is the outer skin of a banana, or, figuratively, a cause of difficulty or embarrassment.

Usually a BANANA SKIN but some folks it a 'peel'; as in, "What shall I do with this peel?"
Use a pin. Insert it into the side of the banana and move it around the inside, being careful not to puncture the skin (you should feel it) and wham! Unpeeled sliced banana.
No. The outer skin of a banana is a banana peel and you peel it off.
