The title of the video pretty much tells you everything you need to know. I’m going to test two different banana slicers, one where I just push a banana shapped cutter down over the banana and another where I have to insert the banana in the cutter. Which cutter will be victorious? Will I end up injured again? Will I ever buy anything useful from Wish? How many times will Scout walk in front of the camera? Watch to find out the answers to these and many more questions!

Episode 10: Bananamole and Banana Daiquiri (1977)
In this episode, I make two recipes from The 2-in-1 International Recipe Card Collection published by Random House in 1977. On the front side of the cards in this collection, there are recipes for mixed drinks and on the back there are recipes for hors d’oeuvres. I’ll be using recipe card number 208 which is in the rum section. This card has three recipes, but I’m only going to make two: the banana daiquiri from the front of the card and bananamole from the back. While preparing my ingredients, I talk about the history of the Cavendish banana and some of the issues with the global demand for this particular variety.
Episode 8: Ham and Bananas Hollandaise (1973)
In this episode, I make a recipe from the McCall’s Recipe Card Index called “Ham and Bananas Hollandaise” and talk about the history and science of hollandaise. You can probably predict how the recipe turned out. This episode is a cautionary tale about the follies of recipe card authors.
