did someone rub their radio on the first banana bush or something?
Why are bananas radioactive?

the sun is a nuclear reactor, it's pumping out tons of radiation
Banana trees have big leaves, so they absorb a lot of that radiation.
> Bananas are slightly radioactive because they contain potassium and potassium decays.
Some other foods are radioactive as well. Pic related.
lol, bananas aren't radioactive.
i have been eating these for my whole live and i never got cancer.
They are radioactive when they're fresh, which is why they're green (poisonous and radioactive).
They then turn yellow which means they're only radioactive.
Once they start to get brown spots the radio activity in that area has been depleted and they're safe to eat/
Not all types and quantities of radiation will give you cancer. See the fake facts thread.
could we theoretically make a nuke from bananas?
This was the plot in Planet of the Apes
Well, you're radioactive in the same way so it's probably nothing to worry about.

oh fuck.
>Top African physicists from around the continent gather around to research banana fission
Hold on, this is news to me because I eat a shit ton of bananas. Are you telling me I could get cancer because of that?
Do banana phones give off twice the amount of radiation?
bananas are high in potassium and are grown at low latitudes, plus residual nuclear test radiation.
anything organic is radioactive
No. Well, anything *might* cause cancer but it's an immeasurably small increased risk.
The part where you listen had been made radiopassive, so it's safe to use them.
>tfw eat at least one banana every day
superpowers here i come.
Lrn2potass-ur-ass fgt pls
wtf I hate kalium now
>lol, bananas aren't radioactive.
Learn you some science.
Because

is radioactive
