I used to think that the little black bit going through the inside of a banana was a spider's leg. However, I didn't know it went through the whole banana, so when I saw a tiny little bit of that black hairy stuff, I often freaked out. I didn't know how the single spider leg got into the banana, but it had to be alive!
I still don't eat the very last bit of the banana with the spider's leg in it.
