                                                                                                                                                                              You can find anything on the internet, especially a lie!

No matter what your question may be, the internet has the answer. But is the answer correct? Internet can also help to supply the facts needed to bolster your belief. So if you believe that there are pink elephants on Mars, the internet is ready to help you substantiate this claim!

Recently, a question is spreading like a wild fire through the social media: can eating bananas and eggs together kill you?

Anatomy of a question

People ask all sorts of stupid questions on the net. However, this banana-and-egg dilemma catches the eye in an instant. How can such simple and easily available foods be harmful if taken together? Aren’t naturally occurring foods supposed to be harmless? Is this a clash between “veg” and “non-veg” food? Or is it a disagreement between “sattvic” and “tamasic” food? In short, the question is so confidently stated that it might seem to be true.

What’s the big deal?

Both of these foods are easily available throughout the length and breadth of India. They form an integral part of the daily diet of millions of people in India and around the world.

Bananas are rich in potassium, carbohydrates, fibre while having little or no fat. They are an ideal snack no matter what your diet may be.

Eggs, on the other hand, are an excellent non-meat source of multiple vitamins like vitamin A, B, D, E and K. Vital minerals like selenium, calcium and zinc are also present in eggs.

Bananas and eggs – a killer combination?

The burning question of the hour is whether eating bananas and eggs together can result in death.

People who ask this question are not entirely sure what they are asking. Very few people can eat a banana and an egg “together”, unless they want to choke themselves. Moreover, very few people eat only bananas and eggs. Human diet is, after all, quite diverse. So, do the chemicals in the banana and egg form a lethal compound in the stomach?

Fortunately, the entire thing is nothing more than a rumour. There is almost no chance that the natural compounds present in bananas and eggs can somehow combine to create a life-threatening chemical in your belly.

Furthermore, many recipes actually suggest mixing bananas with eggs. Banana pancakes, fruit-egg muffins and banana bread are just some commonplace examples of bananas and eggs coexisting without killing people.

Wait a minute!

This does not mean that you can shove any banana and egg down your throat. Make sure that you examine both foods for signs of decomposition, disease or discolouration. If they smell, look or taste weird, then dump them in the nearest dustbin without delay.
