Brings back memories. In the late 70's I was working at a new job and and at lunch one day, I offered one of my co-workers an extra banana from my lunch pail. He looked at it, turned white as a sheet and said no thanks. I was confused. Later, when I knew him better, I asked him about the incident. He took a long breath, told me about his time in the Japanese POW Camp where his diet consisted of only bananas and coconuts. when he was liberated, he decided he would never again eat a coconut or banana.

If I did not hear this first hand, I would not have believed the story.
