It's actually just because of one guy who eats 12 billion bananas in his sleep every year.

So this community is just posting made up nonsense that isn’t factual? Cool cool cool.

As long as they are low quality. Yes

My standards are pretty low, looks like high quality to me.

Legit question, how many bananas would Bananas Georg need to eat in his sleep per night to make that fact true, assuming he eats an equal number of bananas per night and all other people on the planet eat exactly 0 bananas in their sleep?

Based on my incredibly rough and not very thought out math...

32,876,712.328767 per night

Around half the lethal radiation dose then

Potassium is important after all

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yes, but if I don't feed my family, friends, and neighbors bananas while they sleep, they won't get enough potassium in their diet!
