I've had runts once or twice in my life, but the vile taste of a banana runt has stayed with me for life. And this is coming from someone who loves bananas.
I heard from somewhere that banana runts (and banana-based candy in general) is based on the old variety of banana, a.k.a. the Gros Michel, which was wiped out by a fungus sometime in the 20th century and replaced by the Cavendish, which has a completely different taste. But I just looked it up, and apparently it's a myth. So like what the fuck?!
