The Banana Merch Guide
A starter list of the banana goods worth knowing about.
The banana’s fame has spawned an entire economy of merchandise. This is a living list — categories to explore and curate over time. (Add your own favorite finds and affiliate links here as the site grows.)
Kitchen & practical
- Banana slicers — the single most famously reviewed product on the internet, thanks to thousands of gloriously sarcastic customer reviews
- Banana holders / hooks — countertop stands that slow ripening by letting fruit hang
- Banana keepers — single-banana travel cases to prevent lunchbox bruising
Apparel & style
- Banana-print shirts, socks, and pajamas
- The inflatable banana costume — a party and marathon-running staple
- Enamel pins and patches
Toys & novelty
- Plush bananas (including ones with faces)
- The dancing/singing banana desk toy
- Squishy stress-relief bananas
Homage art
- Prints riffing on Warhol’s Velvet Underground banana
- Cattelan-inspired “duct-taped banana” wall art (for the truly committed)
Curator’s note: As Bananapedia grows, this section can become a proper reviewed guide — best-in-class picks, price ranges, and honest takes. For now it’s a map of the territory.
