Forget David Cameron's feng shui-inspired cabinet re-shuffle, there was only one topic on everyone's lips when The Daily Slap took to the streets today: the rising costs of bananas. That's because we asked them about it though.

Yes, according to the Daily Mail, it will soon cost you more to buy a banana than it does today. Bosses at Fyffes reckon the strength of the US dollar combined with higher fruit costs and rising fuel costs mean you’re soon going to have to ask mummy for more dinner money.

But rather than tell you what we think about this banana bummer, here's what you, the filthy British public had to say...

“Oh, it were chaos down me local supermarket. People were panic buying ‘nanas like they was going out of fashion. Rather than get involved with that nonsense, I just set off the fire alarm, waited for everyone to gather in the car park, then walked out the back door with a trolley full of ‘em. Fools.”

Lucas Fist, Bra Fitter

“My husband is an ape so I don’t know what I’m going to do. It’s not as if they grow on trees.”

Naomi Nostril, Accusation Maker

“This is a nightmare for me. Ever since I became a woman I’ve been on the yellow diet. My vicar told me about it. He sticks to it religiously. Basically you can eat whatever you want as long as it’s yellow. With bananas out of my price range I’ll have to stick to butter, sugar puffs and sweetcorn.”

Dame Posy Thyroid, Vending Machine Cleaner

“I hate bananas. They look like willies.”

Alex Appendix, Bashful Bladder Sufferer

“Bananas are an integral part in teaching future teenage mums how to put on a condom. Without bananas, whatever shall I use as a prop? I'm sure something will pop up.”

Dr Dennis McDiaphragm, Biology Teacher and Part time Racist
