Didn't something like this happen at whole foods here in the US before? I've always been against bananas so this means nothing to me.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

this happened in my hometown 20 years ago-at a flower shop, the cacti they were selling all were loaded with tarantula hatchlings. literally 9 dozen miniature cactus were doused in gasoline and set ablaze

 

[Junior Mint]

You mean you've never seen a spider in your house?

I'm imagining millions of spiderlings hatching and running into corners and cracks.

Sorry, UK, but:

Ewww.
Were the spider eggs in the banana or just on the surface of the peel?
The horror if I would ever find out that I ate living spider babies... brrr.

 

[TylerD]

I eat a banana just about every day. This is not a good thread.

The spider which gives you an erection.

Don't worry, winter is coming, freeze the fuckers.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Brazilian bananas?

Thanks, FIFA.

 

[SneakyStephan]

Australia is laughing at us right now.

Australian people eat the spiders and throw away the banana.

 

[hsin]

Obligatory

 

[Marleyman]

Ha I don't eat fruits or vegetables. Your move spiders.

Same here...try and hide in my burgers, spiders.

 

[Seth Balmore]

Of course this would involve my favorite fruit. Of course.

 

[zma1013]

Okay, so no more bananas forever.

 

[Winterblink]

Why did they leave this out in their list of symptoms?

Aside from causing intense pain, the venom of the spider can also cause priapism in humans. Erections resulting from the bite are uncomfortable, can last for many hours and can lead to impotence. A component of the venom (Tx2-6) is being studied for use in erectile dysfunction treatments.

I searched for spider in burgers and got nothing, you win this time!

 

[Ingueferroque]

reminds me of

Gorgeous poster.

They are probably in there, you just never notice because they are ground up. Delicious!

 

[PolishQ]

don't tell them about the black widows in the grapes...

I was just going to post about how my mom once found a black widow in a bunch of supermarket grapes! It was about 15 years ago, but still...

Call Mr. Tally-man.

I had my own run in with a deadly spider yesterday,

My washing machine was acting weird (taking forever to fill for the wash) so I checked it and it was dumping water from the back straight onto my floor (hose had busted) and to make sure I wasn't just pumping gallons of water into the basement I went out to check our gauge.

Lifted the lid and looked down, didn't see any movement from it, but did catch something out of the corner of my eye, looked at the lid... and a black widow the size of the palm of my hand was in the lid. I kind of went into a white noise place because the next thing I really remember I was heading back to the house. Apparently I had gotten the lid closed.

Gah! I never want to see a black widow that big again.

 

[Raistlin]

I used to work in produce back in high school. I've killed a few 'banana spiders' in my time.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Nightmare fuel.

 

[NinjaBoiX]

"Spiders. You're eating spiders Micheal, how do they taste?"

 

[argon]

Love this movie. Now, that's a poster by the way.

Strange trivia fact: the spider was removed in later posters. I'm not sure why. Complaints from arachophobes, perhaps?

 

[Trigger]

I'll never eat a banana in Britain again.

 

[maliedoo]

 

[Chosen3]

I've heard bananas are a little bit radioactive. Though in this case I don't know if that's a bad or good thing.

 

[Symphonia]

I can feel them on me.

Oh, god.

 

[Riggs]

Basically, the only proper way to kill spiders.

 

[Gazoinks]

And then I never ate a banana again. I knew they were out to get me from the time I almost choked on one when I was three.

 

[cdyhybrid]

Sorry, UK, but:

Yep.

Nope nope nope.

Ha, it completely removes the point of the poster

 

[Daingurse]

Great, now my skin crawls. I don't know what I expected, etc . . .

[WarMacheen]

There isn't enough nope's on the planet for this shit.


But there is enough gasoline to burn down the area in a two mile radius

 

[-Horizon-]

Welp, that's good I didn't really like bananas in the first place.

 

[Deleted member 80556]

Never eating bananas again.

And damn you guys, you turned me into an aracnophobe!

 

[JetBlackPanda]

 

[solarus]

Britain? Fuck me.

 

[shortyme]

This is the worst thing I've read all day.

 

[Eppy Thatcher]

I love how they covered the floor in spray as well like "we'll just turn this whole corner into hell and let him just TRY to crawl his scary ass out of it. Fuck the house."

 

[niunhuiio]

Perfect!

 

[Talents]

Lucky I hate bananas. Even if the house was fumigated, I would not go back. Hell naw.

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Come Mr. Tally man, tally me banana. Hide the deadly black tarantula.
