What cotton candy flavors havw you tried? My favorite is banana
I'm not actually sure what flavours we've had. usually it's either the pink or blue stuff you get at fairgrounds and the internet says those are normally vanilla and blue-raspberry but we haven't had them in a while so I can't pinpoint whether that feels accurate.
I absolutely love banana flavoured candy just in general so banana flavoured candyfloss sounds amazing.
I know you can also make candyfloss from honey and I'd love to try that at some point
#ask#🍬 post#food mention#thank you anon!#also fun fact: one of the common flavourings for banana candy (isoamyl acetate) is also used for pear drops#it's also used for testing the effectiveness of respirators#and it's released by bees when they sting as a way to attract other bees to come and help#so like idk maybe don't eat pear drops and then immediately breathe on a beehive?

A cute hair for PF-EF, Simpliciaty Emori. The mesh was 4t2 converted by @peppermint-ginger, I made edits (see under the cut). Polycount: 11k.
Download: SFS / Mega
They come my usual 12-color palette + 3 unnatural add-ons; I used this retexture by @timeparadoxsims as a base. All recolors are binned and familied except for Naberius and the 3 add-ons, which will be in the custom bin. I use Grenade both as a blond for toddlers-adults and as a grey for elders - if you don't want Grenade for elders, just delete the file that ends with "_grenade_EFgrey".
More details below.
The 3 unnatural add-ons ↓
Inspired by the 3 unnatural recolors of afhairpagepunk, but they are custom, there's no default replacements on this post. These colors don't follow any system (they're modified versions of io's bastet, pooklet's powdercake & pooklet's isoamyl).
~
Mesh edits
I raised the AF mesh to better match the Maxis AF scalp level, straightened the bent strand at the back, matched the scalp vertices & corrected their bone assignment, closed the hole at the top of the head, adjusted the child and toddler meshes to give more room to the brows.
These edits don't affect compatibility with existing recolors (see database). Download edited mesh file only: SFS / Mega
Some transparency issues remained, most annoyingly the scalp peeking through on the front left side. I solved that in the recolors by adding some scalp texture. The mesh edit previews above were taken before I did, which is why you can still see a line of skin along the bangs' roots, but that's fixed in the download:

Underdark Blues Skin
I've been playing a lot of Baldur's Gate 3 and wanted to make a skin suitable for drow and other Underdark natives. So... I ran Pooklet's Isoamyl action over my defaults of my Sunshine Blues skin and called it a day.
Four shades (light, tan, medium, dark) corresponding to EAxis skintones. Fit and fat states included, elders have wrinkles, elder females have saggy boobs, barbie below the waist. Medium in the preview is fat and Dark is fit.
Custom only as I did not want to slap these on a genetic scale that includes regular human flesh tones.

Samsara (Guerlain, 1989 EdP & 2023 EdT)
A sandalwood overdose embellished by ylang-ylang and jasmine. Samsara is the first woody women's fragrance in perfumery. It is constructed over a beautifully crafted sandalwood, used for the first time in these quantities in perfumery. (Guerlain.com)
From Eau de Tati, the back story:
Jean-Paul Guerlain created Samsara in 1985 for Decia de Powell, the woman he loved and who wore the fragrance for four years before it was launched. Jean-Paul took the opportunity to create the perfume for her, as she could not find a perfume that appealed to her. She liked jasmine and sandalwood, in particular, and these were the raw materials on which Samsara was based.
It seems that Gérard Anthony co-created the fragrance, but Guerlain has always loved a good legend. Whether the Sanskrit word "saṃsāra" ("the concept of rebirth and 'cyclicality of all life, matter, existence'") suits the fragrance as a name is a lengthy discussion I'll leave to others.
On the face of it, Samsara is another Guerlain journey into orientalism (stop that!); it's a classic example of loud 1980s fragrance (outdated); it's a benchmark in the Western perfume industry's use of sandalwood (notable). I wanted to write up this one purely because I already had it on hand: when I say "1989," I mean, my mom gave me an eau de parfum sample in 1989. I would have been about ten years old, and I loved collecting little sample vials that gave me too many headaches to actually use—just to keep in my little treasure boxes full of costume jewelry and tumbled rocks and skeleton keys. Apparently I was a magpie, or maybe a dragon. There's only about five molecules left, but as it turns out, that is more than enough.
I also ordered a fresh decant of the current formulation from the Perfumed Court—all they had was the eau de toilette, not the EdP, so this is not a one-to-one comparison. Instead, we have, on one hand, the most aged a Samsara can get, saved since its debut year, and on the other, the lightest, freshest iteration possible. It's lovely, that new EdT. But it's not what I expected at all. A couple of years ago I managed to uncork the 1989 Samsara, and all I got was this incredible note of mingled sandalwood and jasmine—just the richest, smoothest, deepest thing you've ever smelled. But the new one, from my notes: "BUBBLEGUM??"
Powdery fresh floral, rose? Like a living flower that happens to be powdery, not a cosmetic. Very very fresh and outdoorsy, like a garden. The vague idea of sandalwood underneath. Something a bit sweeter coming out, maybe vanilla jasmine. Very light, very easy to wear. Airy, breezy. Sheer.
And then, ten minutes in, bubblegum came out. Motherfucking bubblegum. I had to look up what the old-fashioned Bazooka Joe-type flavor is, because it's not that—there's no tiny twang of clove or wintergreen hiding behind the fruits and vanilla. This is straight-up Juicy Fruit gum. Which involves banana, pineapple, and maybe peach, for a flavor "resembling jackfruit." Now, apparently jackfruit contains "banana oil," aka isoamyl acetate, so I went and googled it on a hunch: yes, it’s in ylang ylang too. Combine that with Samsara's actual peach note (although it smells fresher than the lactone in Mitsouko) and vanilla—
Basenotes.com: Green notes, peach, ylang ylang, bergamot, lemon, iris and orris, violet, jasmine, rose, narcissus, sandalwood, tonka, amber, musk, and vanilla.
—and you've got a powdery-nectar sandalwood bubblegum. It's so good. Two birthdays ago, I got myself a wide-ranging set of essential oils, just so I could see what things smell like individually; the night after I tried Samsara, I started messing around with them, and it's 10,000% the ylang that's bringing the strange fruity note. I rarely if ever see anyone mention the ylang-ylang in Samsara—they always talk about how strong the jasmine is, but I SWEAR TO YOU that this is what it does on me. In fact, twenty minutes in, Bubble Ylang was mostly what I was smelling.
At the same time, the fresh EdT was really, really powdery—you see iris there in not one but two levels of the note pyramid, and orris is just iris root. The classic Guerlains use the ionones of iris and violet a lot; they're in the house accord, the Guerlinade, which I may also try to get a sample of. But the powder is so much stronger in Samsara than I expected. I was promised a sandalwood overdose, and I'm sitting here with Juicy Fruit floating over a bed of irises—like the row of cool dark purple ones we had lining our driveway when I was a kid—at the half-hour mark. According to my notes, I didn't really get ~sandalwood until an hour-twenty, and even that was still blurring into the ylang-ylang. (Apparently these two notes are really compatible; it's the only thing same combination I liked in Chanel No. 5.) That said, it's lovely and sweet and easygoing if you APPLY SPARINGLY. Of the three Guerlains I've tried, this one was by far the easiest to wear.
Which is wild, because supposedly, Samsara is A Sandalwood Bomb, a true big-hair fume of the '80s that will choke you out of a room. And yet, I didn't even get the sandalwood clearly until more than an hour in. There's two reasons for this, I discovered:
One is that I microdose perfume. I always point this out because I want you to understand that if you apply more fragrance than I do, you are not going to get the tame results I do. If you spray Tyrannosaurus Rex all over yourself, there is nothing god or mortal can do for you. I used two swipes of the Samsara sample wand on my left wrist—and it did project a good bit, but it was comfortable. If I'd done the same on my right wrist to balance it out, I would have considered myself good to go for a perfume-appropriate occasion. Maybe if you didn't deploy FIVE SPRAYS you wouldn’t be choking on it, idk idk.
The other reason is that the current formulation of Samsara uses Australian sandalwood—whereas the original used a much richer Indian variety. I was surprised to discover that Samsara has always been formulated as a meeting of natural and synthetic sandalwoods, though. But the current version has a newer synthetic: Javanol. And the thing about Javanol is that some people can't smell it. And I may be one of them. Because there is no reason "an overdose of sandalwood" should smell this modest to me, in the same perfume that is shouting white floral, unless I physically cannot perceive its loudest component. But I'm smelling some sandalwood; that must be the natural oil.
For more on Javanol, I turn to a fragrance I haven't actually tried yet: Escentric Molecules' Molecule 04. Javanol is, in fact, that molecule. The product website explains, it's a synthetic that
retains the radiance and endurance of natural sandalwood, but is sheer and transparent like no sandalwood in nature. “What I love about Javanol is its almost psychedelic freshness,” says [creator] Geza Schoen. “It smells as if liquid metallic grapefruit peel were poured over a bed of velvety cream-coloured roses.” Javanol is like Iso E Super, the molecule in Escentric Molecules 01, in some ways. Like Iso E Super, it comes and goes. The person wearing it loses the ability to smell it after a short while, only to re-connect with it later.
Well, "it comes and goes" may be why I'm not smelling as much sandalwood in Samsara as advertised, I guess—maybe I’m not totally anosmic to Javanol? The company that makes it, Givaudan, says that the aromachemical has
a rich, natural, creamy sandalwood note like beta santanol combined with some rosy nuances. It can also be used at very low dosage (below 0.1%) to bring richness and creaminess to all types of accords. With its exceptional low threshold, Javanol™ is approximately 8 times more effective in wash tests than the most powerful sandalwood product. [...] In the quest for the perfect Indian Sandalwood, Javanol™ is probably the most versatile note with its power, radiance, woodiness and rosiness, blending perfectly with flowers.
Javanol blends so perfectly with ylang and jasmine, in fact, that I can hardly distinguish it through most of Samsara's lifespan on my skin (I appreciate a good olfactory chimera, so that's fine). I can also see why you'd reformulate Samsara, already famous for its Godzilla-sized projection, with the biggest, loudest synthetic sandalwood on the market. But the thing is, the Beast of Givaudan wasn't created until 1996. Javanol may be what Guerlain has paired with Australian sandalwood nowadays, but my original sample was made with [probably a mix of synthetics including] Givaudan's Sandalore and the good stuff—20% (!) Mysore sandalwood.
Mysore Sandalwood Oil is a trademarked perfume oil extracted from the Santalum album variety of sandalwood tree (also known as a "royal tree") in the Mysore district of Karnataka, India. The tree species is said to be one of the best varieties in the world. (Wikipedia, the most concise explainer)
It's also the most expensive. But while I'm sure reformulations are a cost-cutting measure, sandalwood sustainability has also become a huge issue; I'm happy with synthetics if it helps the cause. The Australian sandalwood used in the current Samsara seems to be a popular and less-threatened natural option; it's also in two other fragrances I'm trying at the moment, Le Labo's Santal 33 and Tom Ford's Santal Blush. But it's like the difference between tulle and velvet. You can still use it beautifully, but there is a smoothness and a weight that's missing. People say that Mysore sandalwood is "creamy," even sweet, and it is, but not in a dairy or dessert way; it's legitimately this kind of olfactory texture that's so good. By contrast, the scent of Australian sandalwood feels a little harsh in the top of my nose, full of wood grain and pencil shavings, but also lighter. And yet it blends just as well with the notes of the new Samsara, just in different ways.
As for the old—Mysore and Sandalore® were what greeted me when I uncapped my vintage, 34-year-old sample:
oh my god. ohhhhh my gooooood.
That big sweet fruity ylang-ylang immediately bounced right out—how had I only smelled jasmine in the vial before? I'll stop here and tell you a little bit about ylang-ylang, which is not the note I was expecting to go on about, but here we are:
When you hear about "white florals," they're generally talking about jasmine, gardenia, tuberose (you'll remember this one from HYPNOTIC POISON), lily, lily of the valley—and ylang ylang, even though the latter is a showy yellow flower. I truly don't know how to describe the White Floral if you're not familiar with it, especially since I've never perceived any funky "animalic" indole notes. It's just good to me, very rich, very perfumy, and apparently it does, in an aromatherapy context, have a slightly sedative effect; this may be why people talk about "narcotic" white florals. Ylang-ylang takes the woozy richness of jasmine and, uniquely, adds that fruity, slightly spicy, banana-esque note; I'd love to look for the differences between white florals as I try out more fragrances. With Samsara(s), the jasmine doesn't seem distinct to me, serving instead to support the ylang-ylang, and maybe this is why I only smelled jasmine in the vial: it's my skin chemistry, once again, that's playing favorites.
You know what else my skin apparently loves? Expensive vintage sandalwood. The original Samsara skipped straight to the 1:20 mark and—speaking of narcotics—hit me like a tranquilizer dart. I just curled up on my bed and held my wrist to my nose for about an hour. I was like a cat on the 'nip. My God. I had some hand-me-down incense sticks from the '70s when I was a teenager, and I have been chasing that sandalwood high for three decades. This is it. The blanket of iris, the bergamot blast other reviewers talk about (I only got it the third time I wore the EdT), the supporting cast of notes—barely there. Just the gold.
For about two hours, it was amazing. Then, gradually, Samsara grew more and more overpowering, like a rogue science project slowly ballooning out of control. I ended up wiping it off with a little jojoba oil—not washing it off (DON'T WASTE IT!!), but reducing the amount I had on. There's only about two drops, thick as maple syrup, left in that vial, and that's fine.
Meanwhile, every time I wear the current eau de toilette, it disappears after about three hours.
I wish I'd been able to get a current EdP sample to compare the two formulations directly. But you know what? I still enjoy the iris-forward, sandalwood-backward Samsara. It's easy to wear and it doesn't overstay its welcome, which is a good thing for someone with fragrance sensitivities (me). As much as I love the smooth golden Mysore aspect, I'd rather have the option to reapply than be trapped with the Sandalwood That Ate 1989.

Oooo what did you learn about artificial banana flavouring?
So. My friend told me a weird fact about artificial banana flavouring: "banana flavouring is actually based on an old species of banana that went extinct"
I heard this and was like. "HUH?? What?? This sounds like some tiktok BS" and went off to do research because that... just doesn't sound true?
And what I ultimately found was: the true source of artificial banana flavouring is (probably) indeterminate due to the fact that it's not a heavily documented/researched topic (most articles you can find about it online simply regurgitate the same info from each other) BUT there are a few points to note:
1. The banana in question (Gros Michels bananas) is not extinct. It is no longer sold commercially due to a fungal disease, which impacted the growth and sale of Gros Michels (Commercial bananas are all technically genetic clones, since they no longer have seeds, and are thus very susceptible to disease).
2. While the chemical that is used to create the artificial banana flavouring (isoamyl acetate) IS found in bananas, it is unlikely that it originated from the Gros Michels banana, as the chemical was originally used in British pear flavoured candies long before it's appearance in the market as "banana" (apparently, isoamyl acetate tastes of pear when diluted). When these candies were brought over to the USA, many people didn't recognise the taste to be pear, as the species popular in Britain was different from the popular pear species in America at the time.
3. Gros Michels bananas DO taste like artificial banana flavouring moreso than our current commercial bananas (Cavendish bananas) due to having a higher amount of isoamyl acetate. There is little to no evidence of it originating from Gros Michels, and in fact, banana flavouring predated the arrival of bananas to the commercial market in America, so the connection is likely one made in hindsight.
TL,DR; No, the banana flavouring is not based on the Gros Michels banana, but it IS strongly reminiscent of the fruit.
(and if you want to read more, there is this blog post written by Nadia Berenstein, who has a PhD in the history and sociology of science has written about it extensively: http://nadiaberenstein.com/blog/2016/2/15/bananas)
#additionally i also sent my findings to a group chat consisting of. my friend. my New Friend who I met last month. and his friend who i-#- only just met like. earlier that day. like cool cool my first impression on this guy is just absolutely unhinged#jingling#inbox#what. do i even tag this#animal facts of indeterminate quality#NOT REALLY BUT VIBE WISE IT STILL COUNTS#a banana is an animal to me.

Food for Thought
PRAWN
Poached with Chilled Celery Root and Green Apple Velouté.
***
“What is veh-loo-tay?” the girl whispered to her mother.
“Ask the waiter,” her mother picked up her napkin and delicately wiped her mouth with the corner, “he will know.”
“Excuse me Mr. Robot Waiter sir, what is, um, veh-loo-tay?” the girl turned around to face the waiter, making sure to enunciate each syllable of the mystery word carefully.
Walter stepped out from the corner of the room. He was programmed to stand away from the tables while the customers ate unless his service was needed. Walter stared down at the little girl, napkin tucked into her pressed and ironed blouse, feet wiggling beneath the table.
“Velouté,” Walter said, “is French for ‘velvety.’ It is one of France’s 5 mother sauces, the others being béchamel, espagnole, tomato, and hollandaise. It is a white sauce, started from a stock of chicken, veal, or fish, and thickened with a roux, a butter and flour mixture.”
The girl nodded respectfully, turned back to the dish in front of her, and was about to lift her spoon to try a taste of the now demystified velouté, when she frowned a bit and turned back to the all-knowing waiter.
“Um, Mr. Robot Waiter, what does velouté taste like? Is it good?”
Walter paused for a moment. According to his database of tastes, the velouté in this dish had a light, slightly tart flavor from the apples. The sauce was creamy, velvety, as the name would suggest, and very agreeable to most palates, especially a young child’s. Walter told this to the little girl.
Convinced that the dish in front of her would be delicious, the girl dipped her spoon into the pale green velouté, and tasted.
Walter stepped back into his corner, mechanical eyes still watching the girl as she ate.
He wondered if the velouté really did taste good.
***
Robots can’t taste anything.
Even Walter, who was programmed to know all the tastes and flavors in the world, who could expertly describe any dish or pair the perfect wine with any entree, had never actually tasted anything for himself. Walter could smell things, in a way. Rather, his air filter could detect scent producing molecules, but this was only so Walter could detect the first wisps of smoke from a fire. Perhaps it was more accurate to say that Walter could identify smells rather than “smell” smells. Ethyl butyrate notified him of the likely presence of strawberries, while isoamyl acetate was indicative of bananas.
Every night, Walter stood in his re-charging station and plugged himself into the generator. He powered himself off, and turned back on automatically once his battery was full in the morning. That was his source of sustenance. He had no stomach to fill, no reason to feel hunger, nothing to taste with, no means at all by which to desire food like the patrons of the restaurant where he served. They always arrived so hungry, no table manners could disguise how much they desired to be stuffed full, to dig in without restraint. Was it because they were hungry, or did food really taste that good? And what did “good” even mean?
***
I wonder, Walter thought one night as he stepped into his charging station, if the electricity tastes like anything. It’s basically my food. This time, instead of turning himself off, Walter concentrated hard on the feeling of the electricity coursing through his wiry veins. A crackle in his fingertips, the lightest buzz on his tongue. Something was permeating through his mouth, something not so pleasant, a burning, acrid… taste?
Is this the only flavor I am destined to experience? Walter lamented, the stinging, sparking, smoking taste of my power source?
Unable to handle the acid on his tongue much longer, Walter powered himself off and dreamt of delicious things he had never tasted before.
***
One day at the restaurant, one of the customers turned a beef dish away -- roasted with smoked beets and onion relish, rich, savory, and tender-- since she was a vegetarian. Walter took her untouched plate and walked back to the kitchen. Walter could smell the steak, could detect the flavor compounds produced by the maillard reaction that resulted from the perfect sear, but he did not hunger.
Walter approached the tunnel between the dining area and the kitchen, which housed all the utensils, plates, and an emergency charger. Walter was alone.
No one would know if I took a bite, Walter thought, I can just try chewing it.
Walter had never used a fork and knife before, but the information was all there in his database. He had helped countless customers before with their table manners, after all. Knife in his right hand, and fork in his left, Walter stabbed into the steak and pressed down with his knife.
The steak is tender, and it’s juicy. The red liquid is not blood, it’s myoglobin, a protein that carries oxygen through blood.
Walter lifted the fork to his mouth, and his jaw lowered. He carefully placed the fork tines speared with steak on his shiny tongue. The metal of the fork scraped against his titanium lips. Since Walter had no teeth to chew with, the steak moved languidly around his mouth, spreading its juices as Walter moved his mandible up and down.
It’s savory. The beef is medium-rare, and the onion relish is sweet and tangy.
Walter might as well have chewed an eraser. At least the textural experience was less… rubbery.
After a few seconds of chewing, Walter tried to swallow, but remembered he had no esophagus, and no stomach for it to lead down to. He reached for a napkin, allowed the steak to drop from his lips, and used the corner of the cloth to wipe out the juices from his mouth.
Maybe if I try it again I’ll taste it for real.
Walter was about to reach for his fork again, to take another bite, just one more bite. Maybe if he just thought a little harder, he could taste the salt on his tongue, the earthiness of the beets…
WARNING, BATTERY LOW
Walter’s vision went red, and he walked over to the nearest charging station, conveniently right in the tunnel. He plugged himself in, staring wistfully at the steak sitting mockingly in front of him.
Walter was doomed to continue serving humans until they let him retire, which wouldn’t be for an awfully long time. Until then, he’d be forced to watch countless customers eat not knowing how lucky they were to say the words, “how delicious!” and mean it.
Overwhelmed by a desire to taste something, anything no matter how terrible it was, Walter concentrated again on the tingling sensation of electricity coursing through his tongue. Bitter, acrid, and pungent, the intensely unpleasant aroma filled his mouth and senses, but Walter held on to this disgusting flavor, the only taste he would ever know, ever really know for himself.
The napkin with the steak was becoming soggy in his hand. He clenched his fist a bit tighter.
The scent producing particles from the beef lingered in the air. His air filter captured the thiophenes and pyrazines wafting from the steak, formulated to make the mouth of any human water. The only liquid in Walter’s mouth was the leftover juices from the steak. He would have to wipe the liquid away or his metal tongue would corrode and rust.
The chemicals of the maillard reaction found no receptacle with which to bind on Walter’s tongue. He could not taste them, but knew they tasted good.
Walter was hungry.

Exploring Jungle Juice Poppers in the UK
Introduction
The world of recreational enhancers and aromatics is vast and varied, with one particular product gaining significant attention in the UK: Jungle Juice Poppers. Known for their potency and unique experience, these poppers have carved out a niche in the market. In this article, we will explore what Jungle Juice Poppers are, their uses, legal status, and popularity in the UK.
What are Jungle Juice Poppers?
Jungle Juice Poppers are a type of alkyl nitrite, which are volatile liquid substances that emit a distinctive aroma when opened. These poppers are inhaled directly from the bottle or from a cloth or tissue, providing an immediate and intense rush of euphoria. Originally used as a muscle relaxant and vasodilator in medical settings, poppers have found a prominent place in the recreational scene due to their fast-acting effects.
Uses and Effects
The primary appeal of Jungle Juice Poppers lies in their ability to produce a quick and powerful high. When inhaled, they cause a sudden drop in blood pressure, leading to a feeling of lightheadedness, warmth, and relaxation. This makes them popular in various social settings, including parties and clubs. Additionally, poppers are known for their aphrodisiac properties, enhancing sexual pleasure and reducing inhibitions.
Legal Status in the UK
The legal status of poppers in the UK has been a subject of debate and confusion. Unlike many recreational substances, poppers are not classified as controlled drugs under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971. Instead, they fall under the category of consumer products, regulated by the Psychoactive Substances Act 2016. This act aims to control substances that have a psychoactive effect on the central nervous system. However, due to their specific chemical composition, poppers have been exempt from this act, making them legal to sell and use in the UK.
Popularity of Jungle Juice Poppers
Jungle Juice Poppers have become one of the most popular brands in the UK, known for their high quality and consistent effects. They are widely available in sex shops, online retailers, and even some general stores. Their popularity can be attributed to their potent formula and the trusted reputation of the Jungle Juice brand.
How to Use Jungle Juice Poppers Safely
While Jungle Juice Poppers are legal and widely used, it is essential to understand how to use them safely. Here are some key tips:
Inhale with Caution: Only inhale the aroma from the bottle and avoid direct contact with the liquid.
Avoid Prolonged Use: Repeated and prolonged use can lead to adverse health effects, including headaches and dizziness.
Store Properly: Keep the bottle tightly closed and store in a cool, dry place to maintain potency.
Know Your Limits: Start with a small amount to gauge your reaction before using more.

isoamyl acetate producing yeast should be forbidden from being used in beer

21 - a random fun fact
I have one!
So, bananas. A lot of lotions and sunscreens for the summer time smell like bananas, or have banana peel extract in them.
That's important for two reasons:
1. If you're allergic to latex that could cause issues
2. The alarm pheromone bees release smells a bit like banana
Mind you, in spite of bananas containing isoamyl acetate, there is no evidence that eating a banana around a beehive increases the risk of being stung.
But if you are already bothering bees and happen to smell like bananas, well, you are more likely to have a bad time.
