Banana bummer

Here's a downer:

The author of "Banana: The Fate of the Fruit That Changed the World" says in today's NYT that bananas could soon "slip out of reach" as a result of a imminent banana-destroying fungus approaching the Latin American crop with intent to kill.

And not only, according to Mssr. Koeppel, has the Breakfast Fruit of Champions deccimated the sociopolitics of the continent, but it's not even as delicious as the bananas our great-grandparents ate!

This is seriously terrible.
