How to Smoke Bananas*

* with the understanding that this will not get you high

WHAT YOU NEED


  1. Peel all your bananas. Eat as many as you can. Give the rest to the dog.
  2. Using a sharp knife, scrape off the white pulp lining the inside of the peels.
  3. Put all the scrapings in a large pot and fill the pan about one-third with water. Boil for 3 to 4 hours, until the mixture takes on a solid consistency.
  4. Preheat the oven to 300°F. Spread the mixture on a cookie sheet. Bake for 20 minutes.
  5. Scrape the dried residue off the cookie sheet and put it on a plate. The residue will look a little like burnt sautéed mushrooms.
  6. Roll the residue into cigarettes using cigarette rolling papers.
  7. Put on “Mellow Yellow” by Donovan.
  8. Smoke the cigarettes. You will notice that they taste appalling and burn your throat and lungs a lot, so go easy.
