  7. We have one too! Got it in Little Tokyo at the 98 cent store. It's my new favorite thing to give to kids (and parents) as an inexpensive gift! Would be awesome as a kid's party favor...

  18. They have a banana bunker at the MOMA design store in SoHo. I have one and they actually are accordian so it moves with the shape of the banana. Oh, best believe my friends and I all bought one when we last went to New York. And took pictures with them in Times Square (dorky, I know).

    I saw this in Japan at the 100 yen store.. for 100 yen! ($1) Completely hilarious but oddly useful!

  21. I could have used one of these today. By the time I got to work the banana that I had tossed into my bag had turned into mush.

    ReplyDelete
  22. wow, it's sad how in love with that i am. gotta have one!

    ReplyDelete
  23. omg, i want to check out moma! :)

  24. You know you're a parent (and getting old!) when you watch Dazed and Confused for the first time ever a couple of nights ago on Netflix and end up in a heated discussion with your partner over what an appropriate curfew is for a high school freshman (even though your kids are all under the age of 8) :)

    ps
    I've had the banana bunker for years- love it, but it totally looks like a dildo when there's no banana in it.

  25. Not just parents! They were a big thing for a bit at my sister's school (she's 16).

  26. Add this to the, "F%#!$, why didn't I think of this?!!" list. I'd say it's pretty genius- or if not, just damn practical.

  27. ...or when youre more excited over your new vacuum cleaner than your new pair of riding boots you just bought for the fall...

  28. Hah! Just a week ago, I thought to myself that I needed something like this and I knew some mom had probably already invented it. Almost googled it, but got distracted. Thanks for the tip!

    ReplyDelete
  29. oh my goodness, this is so genius. i've needed this my whole life!

  30. hahaa this is fantastic. just the other day my boyfriend went to grab my keys out of my bag and said 'WHY is there a banana in your purse?'. um, cause i might get hungry, duh. and i'm not even a parent! ;)

  33. I just bought a Wonder Bread Sandwich Saver. And I'm not a mom yet. I love this kind of stuff!

  34. AWESOME! I have to get this.

  35. I really need this. I always take bananas to uni with me, but they always get smashed and bruised from all the books I carry around. I often end up throwing them away. What an ingeniously simple concept!

    ReplyDelete
  36. That is amazing. My banana's get mooshy before I get a chance to eat them, and I like them better when they aren't soft!!

    ReplyDelete
  37. so funny this post! i just bought one for my girl (8 years) who never wanted a banana to school (she is more an apple-girl)... and finally i bought her the banana saver.. just in time before she is to old and embarassed by it!

  38. It's great, although NOT new. I've seen this in lots of stores in Sweden for about ten years. And yes, it works! :D

    You reminded me that I wanted this! I hate bruised bananas!

  42. It's the little things. Although, I think the saying is, "You know you're a parent when you talk about your child's bowel movments in casual conversation." No?

    ReplyDelete
  43. Wow. That's pretty amazing. I just glanced over at my counter with a bruised ended half baby eaten banana and thought...holy crap my kitchen is a mess!!! haha
