This Idea was something I actually attempted to do, litteally trying for a year to find a somone who would bring Blue Java Banana plants into Canada. I also had trouble growing any blananas hydroponically. So my loss is your gain. The Idea being that whuile regular bannas are cheap blue bannas are exotic. and thus justify a higher price point. you know what justifies a higher markup even more? giving them as a gift bouquet. The Idea being that girls who have unrequited love interests could give these bouquest to guys they arent interested as a way of making it crystal clear that they arent interested. The purchase would also nullify any sex debts the girl may have accured from unsolicited gifts from the guy.

       //picture of blue bananas// I wonder if it's safe to click this.. ahem.. hmm..   

       Yup, all looks innocent enough in here, though I do wonder if anyone this interested in bananas should maybe be taking more meds.

       But if you peel a blue banana, the inside is white. In this respect they are very similar to Smurfs.

       Partner up with a dating site: include a couple of month's free premium membership. Also include two blue spheres of some kind. Oddly enough I can think of several feminine oriented products that are blue and spherical, but only one for men: bowling or golf balls.

       Bath balls, candles, perfume bottles, ornaments, and plushies. No need to get into sex toys.

       Just get a sky-writing team to fly over they guy's place with "You're not my type"   

       <Edit> Hang on, hang on, you could probably do it with couple of drones these days..   

       <Edit 2> Were the bananas blue before taking the meds, or after? Just asking.

       It appears from the link that these bananas are not so much blue as cyan, and that magenta bananas can also be grown. Given that we are already familiar with yellow and black bananas, I think you know where this is leading.

       Of course. Irrational colour prejudice against some "inferior" bananas, slavery, civil unrest, rioting, secession, civil war, huge numbers of casualties, and a legacy of festering bitterness and distrust lasting centuries and poisoning any hope of social progress in its cradle, leading to economic imbalance and ultimately the collapse of cvilization followed by an effortless walk-in takeover by an agressive hegemonizing swarm of aliens who have simply been waiting for the ripe fruit to fall, saving the effort of picking it.   

       Are we at all close ?
