I'm glad you specify organic bananas. I remember watching blender demonstrations at the State Fair back in the 1970s and the man doing the demonstration said the only fruit or vegetable that you wouldn't want to eat the peel or add the peel to a Smoothie was the banana because it was sprayed so heavily to prevent tarantulas from being transported into the country. I also know that buying organic bananas is not normally necessary in terms of eating the banana itself because the peel protects the banana from pesticides and chemicals. But obviously if you're going to eat the peel itself you want to make sure it is chemical free.
Considering that pesticides and herbicides have adjuvants that poke holes in cells in order to usher the active ingredient into the organism, I would never intentionally eat a non-organic banana.
Organic farming also uses pesticides. Just non-synthetic ones. Which can be more dangerous (copper sulfate for example) and because they're often times less effective, they can even be used in higher amounts.
@@Pyriphlegeton, pesticides used in organic farming are not systemic, they degrade rapidly, and are not toxic to humans by the time the produce gets to market. For example, natural Bt toxin is applied typically to the plant. It does not penetrate I to the leaves or fruits, and it rapidly degrades in contact with sunlight and water. Bt toxin in GMOs is present inside every cell of the plant, and cannot be washed off, and it does not degrade, and is in the active form. Bt toxin is highly toxic to gut bacteria.
@@johnkm77 Please substantiate your claim that all organic pesticides are not systemic, degrade before consumption and lose no health risks to humans. As I already mentioned, copper sulfate would be an example of a pesticide used in organic farming that has known detrimental effects on human health.
@@Pyriphlegeton copper sulphate can be washed off. As far as substantiating, I used to get into those conversations and wasted hours of my time quoting studies from PubMed just to get more arguments. I'm done with that. If you're really interested, you can do your own research on PubMed.
I think I've heard people in tropical cultures use banana peel in cooking more generally. What else do people make with it? Besides putting it on the floor for Derek to slip on.
@@Simnettnutrition Hey bud, it was actually nothing to do with Balineasian culture we just happened to be in Bali at the time and I was eating a lot of bananas. Loretta found out online you could cook them so we tried it and it actually worked. We also used to blend them in smoothies frozen and you couldn't taste them, apparently, the skins are packed with nutrients. Of course, you need to scrub the skins and make sure they're organic so you're not ingesting lots of toxins.
@@sluggo206 Hey man, just in stir-frys kind of tastes like pulled pork, you just have to get over the fact you are eating banana skins and you will be good to go. 😊
Im pretty much watching everything you uploaded the last 2 years and its impressive how you're constantly improving your YT game. Humur on point and the 5 seconds 'making of' at the end is a very nice touch. Id like to see more 'behind the scenes' and a few bloopers here and there for the laughs! A++
Truly, you're the best youtuber! Your channel is a great mix of inspiration, nutrition and fun! That's so original! Congratulations on your hard work! Greetings from Brazil! ☺️
I found that shredding it finer and also cutting the lengths shorter gave a better texture. I also put the whole lot in the oven after frying and made it a little crispier. Recommend doing it this way if you're going to try this :)
I was entriged. All along thinking - no way! Then I held my breath when you & Crystal took your first bites. What a shock to get your two responses. Im thinking of trying this as a second dish without telling them what it is til after they eat it or not. God bless you from grandma Katie in Oregon

Yes very true. I was trying to find information on what is sprayed on organic bananas and it is not easy to find. Most sources say 'they are not sprayed because they are organic' but we know differently.
Oh man, I haven't even watched this yet and I can tell it's going to be good! You consistently put out some of the absolute best content on RUclips. I've been vegan for 2.5 years and you have helped me tremendously. Thank you!
Maybe it's weird to eat banana peels but there are way weirder ingredients in a lot of processed foods, I need to try this one :) The Stingy Vegan must be shocked with the sudden rise of popularity btw 🤣
I'm so glad you finally tried it! It's sooo much work for so little food. So I definitely get if you won't be making this again. I think this hits the spot for people who don't have access to jackfruit or something similar.
@Dylan Boag What is in fruit and vegetables that isnt in meat, organs and fish? Correct nothing. Meanwhile it is cancerous and lacks nutrients and is full of fibre. Horrible for your body.
I have made this before and it's good. I just use the organic banana peels for pulled pork. The other thing I use is oyster mushroom for this recipe however using the banana peel is a lot cheaper.
Actually banana peels are full of polyphenols, carotenoids, and other antioxidants that fight off cancer causing free radicals in your body. Also banana peels, and especially the green, unripe peels, can increase your antioxidant levels and help reduce risk of cancer. Truthfully it's a much better option than eating dead flesh that has decayed the moment the animal dies which is full of inflammation and saturated fats, which destroys your cardiovascular system.
I’m right there with you re: “likely not going to make this again.” I started making my own soymilk and was left with the pulp (okara). I found out it had some nutritional value in it and so I tried to find recipes to use it up. Then, when I actually saw just how little added nutritional value it had (in comparison to all the work it was causing me), I made peace with not cooking with it. In my world, if it’s not loaded with a bunch of protein and/or not crazy nutrient-dense, I’m leaving it out of my diet. Totally appreciate the novelty, but not congruent with my goals when it comes to food. Thanks Derek!
I'm considering going more with a more plant based diet and I'm concerned about the volume of food I'll need to eat in order to meet my nutritional needs..any advice?
@@moonstrukk126 incorporate lots of cooked veggies. cooked veggies are high in nutrients but easier to digest than raw veggies and a some of them, like spinach, shrink a lot in volume when cooked.
I had chronic fatigue and excessive hair loss. I went vegan and all my problems were gone! Now I feel extremely happy and energized! Also, my hair is knee length!❤️ I feel like I'm thriving!😌 I believe it's bc of all the rich vitamins in every food!!🥝🍐🥰
Why? People peel potatoes which removes a lot of the nutritional values of the potatoes, so why do you think it's so far-fetched that banana peels don't have any?
So glad you FINALLY tried banana peel pulled 'pork'!! Gonna be honest here, you were so cute in this video, Derek 😂 Especially the part where you were adjusting the camera munching away with sauce around your mouth
Great fun guys. I've made similar before but I didn't shred until it was cooked. I think that helped with the colour. I didn't love it. I didn't hate it. But I also didn't make it again. And ... to be honest, if I recall, it gave us the farts. If I recall correctly. It's been awhile. I keep thinking maybe I'll try it again but this time in the Instant Pot but haven't yet. Cheers!
Thank you! Will definitely try this. I read/heard about banana peel being very nutritious but didn't bother to look into it further, so thank you again for making it easy for a lazy being/procrastinator lol! Another very nutritious component of a fruit is the avocado seeds ... boiling, peeling off the shells, chopping up the shelled seed, then boiling again to make a nutritious tea. Stinging nettle tea is extremely nutritious/medicinal too!! 😊
I am the laziest cooker so I am won’t try this, but I watched this whole video, because FAV RUclipsR (+ fav RUclipsrs Girlfriend) crystaaaal 💗💗💗 I would love to see some biking vlogs!
Different... I'm glad you showcased this as it's not something I think I'd try! I've heard of blended banana skin in cakes before now so it definitely has nutrition value. Thanks for the upload, love to you both
I ate banana peels for many years, and I use green and ripe banana peels, but after scrape the white part and slice them with the fork, I soak them into water with a lemon juice for about 20 minutes. I drain them and, sometimes I freeze to cook later. I used to cook them with spices and a little more water than you did it, and let them cook for 10 - 20 minutes in low medium heat.
Very interesting, thank you. Might give it a try. We have been able to reuse our banana peels by stewing them in water a couple hours to make “banana tea”. We use it to water our plants and garden once a month or so. Really helps boom growth. Then the stewed peels go out to our pet chickens.
Oh, my, God Becky...look at her peasant buns. 😂🤣 Seriously, that was the perfect call man! Thanks for your dedication to trying out new things for us viewer's and being so genuine during the experience....I will totally have to try this recipe at least once!😊 You guys make an awesome team! 👌💯
I cook with the riper peels all the time, they are great for "bacon" or just chopped up in curry. You can also cook with Watermelon rind (Indian "sabzi", or you can pickle it). My food budget (and compost pile) has decreased so much since I've learned how to cook with all the "scraps"
I just tried this and thought it was really good! I like it better than the jackfruit barbecue I’ve made before. Maybe this recipe is just better than what I used then. Any thoughts on freezing the peels and thawing them to make this? Would allow you to collect enough for larger grill out.
I tried making burgers with frozen peels (different recipe obviously). The peels look quite dark and bruised after freezing (not very appetizing) and become much softer. Tasted alright though, so I guess you can make this with frozen if you don't mind the look.
the peels will turn dark as it oxidizes really fast. one way of avoiding it is to wash the peels and soak them for just about a few mins in warm water with salt and lemon juice. That reduces the oxidization. try doing this treatment to a few peels and then immediately put them in a zip lock bag and freeze. with the small amount of salt and lemon juice on it it might be good to use after its thawed out.
Thank you for making this video; I know everyone who requested it is very happy right now. I suggested you try a banana peel recipe and was so excited to see this new upload!!!
@@kreeetinWe know youre not that smartest, cause you re vegan. But the fact that you dont die instantly doesnt Change the fact youre destroying your gut. Just like smoking or taking 5 shots of vodka everyday doesnt kill you instantly.
I throw in bananas in blender unpeeled. I don’t want to waste it. There’s lots of nutrients. I also throw clementines with peel in Vitamix. I will try it.
Meat eaters... always seasoning their meat with plants to disguise the actual taste of meat. LOL. I got jokes too Stevo. This video was just for fun. I usually eat smoothie bowls, stir fries, beans, rice, lentils, salads, etc. So I don't try and make everything look or taste like a dead animal. Also I would argue that pulled pork doesn't exactly represent the realistic act of eating meat. Man up Stevo, take a bite right out of the leg like a real predator would. You're basically eating stringy BBQ sauce whichever one you choose.
@@Simnettnutrition I actually don’t eat processed bbq sauce like you do, full of gmo and highly processed seed oils, preservatives, etc. Gross stuff right there. Hope the omega 6, sugar, and free radical bomb was worth it. Stupid “argument”, almost like a child. Following your “logic”, eat all of your plants raw like a real vegan. Man up, bro. Animal products are way more nutrient dense than plants. It’s not even close. I cook my meat in ghee and Celtic salt only. Do I enjoy eating some plants? Yes, because I eat how our ancestors actually would have. Your extreme diet, which requires unnatural supplementation, is laughable and inconsistent. Just like your “jokes”.
@@Simnettnutrition --- _Meat eaters... always seasoning their meat with plants to disguise the actual taste of meat. LOL._ --- The ones who do it's to *enhance* flavor, not hide it. If meat were disgusting, the whole world would be vegan. We can't say the same for veganism where people keep quitting it or hiding the fact that they cheat off camera.
@@Simnettnutrition How do you know he seasons his meat with “plants” to disguise the taste? You’re just trying to deflect. And why would we hide the actual taste of meat? There’s a reason why eat meat. Because it tastes good and it’s nutritious! We may add seasonings to enhance the flavour, that doesn’t mean we’re trying to hide the actual flavour of the meat, because that would be implying that we don’t like the taste of meat, which is absolute nonsense. Man up and eat actual meat rather than banana peels. We all know you crave it. Take a bite of some grass like a real herbivore would.
Hi, my favorite couple. Wow, well I definitely learned something new today. I don't know if I'm adventurous enough to try it. Thanks for broadening my horizons. 🥰👍🥰🥰🥰
It's spooky that the banana peels DO NOT taste like bananas, not even a hint of banana flavor! I started mine with onions in the pan first, than adding ingredients (rather than combining all ingredients in a bowl first) but outcome the same-surprisingly delicious. Love your videos, Derek and Crystal. At least one of my children and one grandchild like and watch, too 💖
I know .. don't knock it till you try it... But, not sure about this and the taste?... 🧐🤔...I'll have to make one and just see.... I will say, very interesting idea!
1) I think you could marinate it for longer to break down some of the vegetably fibers (you know, so that it doesn't have that weird bite to it) 2) I have heard Nigella Lawson has a recipe for banan peel curry and from the reviews of the Sorted Food crew (all non-vegans) it is incredible too so maybe worth giving a go!
I keep watching these banana peel pulled pork sandwich videos to see if there will ever be a legitimately good reaction lol. So far I think this is the most positive reaction I've seen and the best we get it is "I wouldn't send this back if it was served to me in a restaurant" XD. If I'm going to invest the time into cooking something like this, it has to illicit a bit better of a response than that, haha. It really feels like the purpose of this recipe is social media engagement more than anything else.
If you are vegan a baked BBQ jackfruit version (I do have it on my channel somewhere) is really good and worth trying. Yah the Cole slaw I think is a southern thing, not normal for me either but I know it goes with pulled pork.
This had me down the rabbithole after checking about using banana peels in cooking. Interesting how many different cultures use them, and also interesting other fruits we can use peels but don't. Just found out apparently you can eat the skins on kiwis and watermelon rind. Funnily enough just got organic bananas for a change. Think I'll try it out.
Hi 🙋♀️ so I started watching your videos again after ~2 Years…It made me rethink my unhealthy lifestyle (fires, chicken nuggets,coke every day) and I really started to feel the want to change. I really wanna go vegan, but everyone in my family is against it (I don’t live at home, but see them every other day) and they are all meat-LOVERS and don’t accept and like my choice so I just said I am vegetarian 🌱 but when I am at home or at work or just by myself I will only eat vegan!😻 so this is Not Perfect but it’s a step out of my unhealthy life and I am happy about it! „Don’t do nothing just because you can’t do everything“ ! I learned from you and I do the best I can! Thank you for the content! I really needed a lifestyle change 🌱💪
When you cleaned the peel of the banana, you removed a lot of the soft part which is what gives a balance to the fibrous part of the peel. The best thing is to just remove the excess so it doesn't taste like a banana.
Awesome video! I'm definitely going to try this. Also, I was going to comment recommending organic bananas due to the pesticide content, but you beat me to it!

I love the editing on this one! Thanks Derek and Crystal💕
I’ve made a similar dish using shredded cabbage and it was very tasty.
Love your two's energy 💜💜💜
Great slaw recipe....super easy and simple yet tasty! Sandwich looks delicious!Great channel 👍
I add shredded apple to coleslaw. Super yummy 😋
Thanks for being honest.😊
This was a fun video. I loved the little thumbnail staging at the end. 😄🎬
i would love to try this! Have you ever tried it with oyster mushrooms????? So good!
Your videos are great they always make me laugh or smile at least. And thank you for the Sir-Mix-A Lot remix in there lol
If you want to do major damage on your gut microbiom, gut lining, and intestines- this is the perfect meal for you!
I must be dead then. Why you say that?
@@kreeetinWe know youre not that smartest, cause you re vegan. But the fact that you dont die instantly doesnt Change the fact youre destroying your gut. Just like smoking or taking 5 shots of vodka everyday doesnt kill you instantly.
I throw in bananas in blender unpeeled. I don’t want to waste it. There’s lots of nutrients. I also throw clementines with peel in Vitamix. I will try it.
Breaking the mold! ;)
Vegans always trying to make meat alternatives 😂 lol
Meat eaters... always seasoning their meat with plants to disguise the actual taste of meat. LOL. I got jokes too Stevo.
This video was just for fun. I usually eat smoothie bowls, stir fries, beans, rice, lentils, salads, etc. So I don't try and make everything look or taste like a dead animal.
Also I would argue that pulled pork doesn't exactly represent the realistic act of eating meat. Man up Stevo, take a bite right out of the leg like a real predator would.
You're basically eating stringy BBQ sauce whichever one you choose.
@@Simnettnutrition I actually don’t eat processed bbq sauce like you do, full of gmo and highly processed seed oils, preservatives, etc. Gross stuff right there. Hope the omega 6, sugar, and free radical bomb was worth it.
Stupid “argument”, almost like a child. Following your “logic”, eat all of your plants raw like a real vegan. Man up, bro.
Animal products are way more nutrient dense than plants. It’s not even close.
I cook my meat in ghee and Celtic salt only. Do I enjoy eating some plants? Yes, because I eat how our ancestors actually would have. Your extreme diet, which requires unnatural supplementation, is laughable and inconsistent. Just like your “jokes”.
@@Simnettnutrition I dont know any meat eater who seasons their meat as much as you season those peels lmao.
@@Simnettnutrition --- _Meat eaters... always seasoning their meat with plants to disguise the actual taste of meat. LOL._ ---
The ones who do it's to *enhance* flavor, not hide it. If meat were disgusting, the whole world would be vegan. We can't say the same for veganism where people keep quitting it or hiding the fact that they cheat off camera.
@@Simnettnutrition How do you know he seasons his meat with “plants” to disguise the taste? You’re just trying to deflect. And why would we hide the actual taste of meat? There’s a reason why eat meat. Because it tastes good and it’s nutritious! We may add seasonings to enhance the flavour, that doesn’t mean we’re trying to hide the actual flavour of the meat, because that would be implying that we don’t like the taste of meat, which is absolute nonsense. Man up and eat actual meat rather than banana peels. We all know you crave it. Take a bite of some grass like a real herbivore would.
Derek, try doing this with large oyster mushrooms. Works better than jack fruit. Love the video!
Hi, my favorite couple. Wow, well I definitely learned something new today. I don't know if I'm adventurous enough to try it. Thanks for broadening my horizons. 🥰👍🥰🥰🥰
Love the legit trying for the first time reaction on camera
It's spooky that the banana peels DO NOT taste like bananas, not even a hint of banana flavor! I started mine with onions in the pan first, than adding ingredients (rather than combining all ingredients in a bowl first) but outcome the same-surprisingly delicious. Love your videos, Derek and Crystal. At least one of my children and one grandchild like and watch, too 💖
What a unique recipe, thank you for being guinea pigs for us!! Going to make that coleslaw tonight!
unique as in “Meat is bad. Let me make fake meat out of garbage!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I know .. don't knock it till you try it... But, not sure about this and the taste?... 🧐🤔...I'll have to make one and just see.... I will say, very interesting idea!
Great video! I'll bet some caramelized onions would taste amazing with that.
I think ill stick to jackfruit... but fun video thanks for taking one for the team so I dont have to 😆
Oh nice I’m going to make this tonight
1) I think you could marinate it for longer to break down some of the vegetably fibers (you know, so that it doesn't have that weird bite to it)
2) I have heard Nigella Lawson has a recipe for banan peel curry and from the reviews of the Sorted Food crew (all non-vegans) it is incredible too so maybe worth giving a go!
Try BBQ jackfruit, tofu, king oyster and Banana Peal! All together shredded in a sandwich. 🤯 Now that's a vegan BBQ sandwich.
I agree with this..mix em all up! 😁
I'd watch that for sure.
Sounds like way to many different textures
@@GunGun-cf3ss try it and you won't say that! Coz sounds like isn't tasting...so untill ya try it, don't knock it.
I keep watching these banana peel pulled pork sandwich videos to see if there will ever be a legitimately good reaction lol. So far I think this is the most positive reaction I've seen and the best we get it is "I wouldn't send this back if it was served to me in a restaurant" XD. If I'm going to invest the time into cooking something like this, it has to illicit a bit better of a response than that, haha. It really feels like the purpose of this recipe is social media engagement more than anything else.
Yes Pesticides fungicides herbicides taste great and have that pulled pork flavor . 👌......
I never thought about putting cole slaw in a sandwich, so that's a winner right there! (never had pulled pork in my 67 year life)
If you are vegan a baked BBQ jackfruit version (I do have it on my channel somewhere) is really good and worth trying. Yah the Cole slaw I think is a southern thing, not normal for me either but I know it goes with pulled pork.
This had me down the rabbithole after checking about using banana peels in cooking. Interesting how many different cultures use them, and also interesting other fruits we can use peels but don't. Just found out apparently you can eat the skins on kiwis and watermelon rind.
Funnily enough just got organic bananas for a change. Think I'll try it out.
I have done this twice now, and personally recommend riper (spotty) peels! 🍌
Hi 🙋♀️ so I started watching your videos again after ~2 Years…It made me rethink my unhealthy lifestyle (fires, chicken nuggets,coke every day) and I really started to feel the want to change. I really wanna go vegan, but everyone in my family is against it (I don’t live at home, but see them every other day) and they are all meat-LOVERS and don’t accept and like my choice so I just said I am vegetarian 🌱 but when I am at home or at work or just by myself I will only eat vegan!😻 so this is Not Perfect but it’s a step out of my unhealthy life and I am happy about it! „Don’t do nothing just because you can’t do everything“ ! I learned from you and I do the best I can!
Thank you for the content! I really needed a lifestyle change 🌱💪
Veganism is the unhealthiest diet you can follow.
I'm not sure, but I think using banana peels this way is popular in Brazil. Great video!! Thank you ❤️
When you cleaned the peel of the banana, you removed a lot of the soft part which is what gives a balance to the fibrous part of the peel. The best thing is to just remove the excess so it doesn't taste like a banana.
I NEED the inspiration and daring of this channel! I may have to try this.
"Questioning life choices.." hahahaha, that was funny.
Very unexpected recipe, but so creative! I love it 🙌 You gotta do more of these random taste tests lol
Thanks Derek for being such an inspiration 🌿
You're welcome! I always feel like I should do more, but thanks so much for the kind words!
Seriously laughed out loud to myself during the tasting. Such a funny video! 😂👌🏼
are you actually mad or what?
OMG wow! have just made these all i can say is WOW. cheers jon wales uk
Wow, have to try that!
I also use canned jackfruit to make bbq sandwiches. It is delicious
wow! need to try this!
This was a great video! Mouth watering. Love the bbq face and everything - hahaha ;)
Awesome video! I'm definitely going to try this. Also, I was going to comment recommending organic bananas due to the pesticide content, but you beat me to it!
You should have known me better by now! ;)
Bro that looks good and I'm gonna try that recipe for sure this week for me and my wife....
