    The part opposite from the point at which it attached to the bunch.

    Pinch the bottom, opens easily. Try snapping open the top and you get at best a smooshed tip at worst, at worst, it just doesn’t open.

        Yes, I guess in that sense, sure. But that’s not how you hang it and that’s not how they usually show you how to peel it.

        But kudos for catching me on my lack of banana growth habits.

          This is probably in “is a hotdog a sandwich” territory so that was mostly for laughs.

          The unambiguous term is “blossom end” because that’s where the flower attaches, but probably not helpful for most people. Small end? Uncut end?
