You probley all know by drying out a banana skin, and then scraping out the inside bit, the bit that comes off in strings down your banana, then putting it a Riz and smoking is ment to get you "high".
Basicly i was just wondering if anyone had any usuful information on this, im intressted to hear about it. I think im going to try it, no matter how stupid it sounds, i want to see if it works. Please anyone can i have good information about this, or anything else like this.
thanks
It does not work. Its from the anarchist cookbook.
Ok, well thanks. Have you tried it?
I think i still will anyway.
Also i heard about highs from penut shells and weird things other than bananas.
But as me and my mates said yesterday, not like the sweet taste of weed.
yeah that penut shell thing is in the cookbook aswell....only you need 1lb of nuts and its not the shell its the skin on the nut....bit toooooo much effort if you ask me.
You have to boil the scrapings and shit, and then bake them, until they're a powder, it really doesn't seem worth the hassle.. if anything happens, it's a placebo for sure!
Here's all you need to know about it:

Wish it was true, as the effects sound cool lol
i have a headache, just from reading this thread
i didnt boil it or anything mayb this was a reason it didnt work. i just got a knife and scraped off the inside of the skin and left it to dry. hmmm someone could try the long way
You'd have to be either very desperate or very bored to try this...
roughly how many bananas is 15lb?
I aint desperate, but i am bored.
from the anarchists cookbook:
Believe it or not, bananas do contain a small quantity of
_Musa Sapientum bananadine_, which is a mild, short-lasting
psychedelic. There are much easier ways of getting high, but
the great advantage to this method is that bananas are legal.
1) Obtain 15 lbs. of ripe yellow bananas.
2) Peel all 15 lbs. and eat the fruit. Save the peels.
3) With a sharp knife, scrape off the insides of the peels and
save the scraped material.
4) Put all of the scraped material in a large pot and add
water. Boil for three to four hours until it has attained a
solid paste consistency.
5) Spread this paste on cookie sheets, and dry in an over for
about 20 minutes to a half hour. This will result in a fine
black powder. Makes about one pound of bananadine powder.
Ususally one will feel the effects of bananadine after smoking
three or four cigarettes.

From the author of the Anarchist cookbook:
"Author would like to see publication discontinued. . . .
"The Anarchist Cookbook was written during 1968 and part of 1969 soon after I graduated from high school. At the time, I was 19 years old and the Vietnam War and the so-called 'counter culture movement' were at their height. . . . The book, in many respects, was a misguided product of my adolescent anger at the prospect of being drafted and sent to Vietnam,"
