This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Ohh so that's how they make it
In highschool, someone as a joke put a banana in the laptop pouch of my backpack, figuring that I'd find it later that day and wonder where it came from.
I didn't have a laptop, and I didn't use that pouch. It was a separate zipper, and was heavily padded, and I had no idea it was there. They forgot about it.
After a few days, I kept noticing a wet spot wherever I set my bag down. After a few weeks, the weird rotting look at the bottom of my bag was too much to ignore. I investigated, and the horrors that were at the bottom of that pouch are not the likes I'd speak here.
This happened to me but in the student drawers we had in primary school. I was not a particularly ambitious kid so i never used that drawer. It wasn't until the end of the year that I realized that the rotting smell in the classroom had come from my drawer where someone at some point (might also have been me) put a dead crab.
Probably still good for banana bread.
Not sure how big it is, no scale.
Well, put it back! Future archaeologists might feel a bit peckish!
eat it you coward :P
Randy Feltface just dropped a comedy special about bananas in general, but he mentioned that one specifically
As ancient as the first complaint over bad copper?
Sooo...
Are you gonna eat that?
We can share if you want! Can't beat the crunch of a nice ripe banana π
I think I got a roll of stale duct tape around, wanna go install it as an art museum exhibit? We should probably get at least $6000 for it, to split of course..

No guarantees if my duct tape sticks though, but still worth $6000 right?
Mmmm dried banana is good!
Time for banana bread!
ALLLLMOST ready for banana breadβ¦.
Looks just about perfect for banana bread or a smoothie!
this looks like someone edited the pΕ«keko meme to look like a banana
DAMN
Moldy interesting!
How big is it? I need something for scale.
About 4 inches!
No way, thatβs a solid 8 inches (Yeah I totally know, but please just roll with me here) itβs really been a boost to my confidence lately.
It's a clue. How old is your house? I would do a thorough check for mummies.

Ancient π Never heard that adjective describe a banana before lol
Lucky you.
Normally they liquify and become really nasty instead going the mummification path...
That's like 3 weeks tops
Not ancient enough to attract conspiracist, that's for sure!
