5. Needle in a Banana

Do you feel self-conscious eating a banana in public? With this trick, you can have a pre-sliced banana still in its peel. Start at the top by inserting a needle into the banana along its longest curved side. Then, move the needle from left to right through the fruit's flesh. Repeat this process every few centimeters until you reach the bottom. When you peel the banana, it will be already sliced and ready to eat! You can enjoy the slices directly from the peel. Try it discreetly—when you open the banana, no one will understand how it's already cut!
