Coutious when selecting Bananas

At the rate of RM 2/- a dozen, death is being sold now-a-days in our
> markets. My request for everybody is to be vigilant.

or some other infection in the stomach. Therefore, such type of bananas
are to be avoided.

black.

their stalks are green and morover they are clear yellow without any black

> Now, what is Carbide and how is it harmful? Carbide is a chemical

tank mixed with Carbide is even more than that emitted by a LPG Cylinder, so
> much so it can be used for Gas Cutting (which means the calorific value is so
> high that it can replace LPG gas). In the same way, when the bunch of
> bananas are dipped in the water mixed with Carbide, the gas gets
absorbed into the bananas and they get ripe. However, the banana vendors are not that literate and so they do not know the exact proportion of Carbide to
be used for a dozen of bananas. As a result they end up using excess
> quantity of Carbide which gets absorbed into the bananas and ultimately enters
our stomach. Due to this excess use of Carbide, Tumours can be formed in
our digestive system.
