Remember Miss Chiquita Banana?
She's a little older, but still straight up bonkers about bananas. You'd think the lady's fruit fetish would have let up by now, but it's only gotten worse. Not only does she sing the praises of her fave fruit, she adds big, beady eyes to its freckled exterior and creates a chorus of mouthless, banana backup singers.
That Banana Split is Going to Cost You Extra
Looks like everyone's favorite fruit-hat wearing lady is going to cost a little bit more. The Cincinati-based Chiquita company will be raising banana prices in North America by 4%. I guess this means our favorite banana recipes just got a little pricier.

Beauty Mark Results: MTV Movie Awards Makeover
The MTV Movie Awards aired on Sunday, and even though the whole thing was one big Summer movie trailer, there were some enjoyable moments (hello Wayne's World). As expected, though, the most exciting part for me was watching the starlets walk the red carpet and debating their beauty choices.
Last week, I asked you all to imagine what makeup you would wear to the awards show.
Miss Chiquita Banana Has a One Meow Mind
When she's not gluing eyes onto pieces of fruit and playing with her food, she's loving up on Wilbur here and meowing like a damn broken record. Miss Chiquita Banana has officially gone off the deep end. And I'm a big fan.
