Tips/Hints:
This recipe makes a texture close to the "Fruity Dream" in the cook book, but only with bananas and a small amount of ice. For a texture like ice-cream, add more ice, and substitute the fresh banana with another frozen one.

It's great for people with allergies to dairy and/or egg products.

Post by: thermoteen on December 03, 2009, 08:56:36 am: Yeah Coles Online here is advertising them at $4.98/kg (or 90¢ each), Woolworths Homeshop is advertising them at $1.03 each, weird pricing.

The reason why they're so expensive is that bananas are the ONLY fruit that is not allowed to be imported into Australia, thus the price changes due to the season, bananas are still the biggest selling item in Coles supermarkets.

That's fantastic. Judging from some shoppers trolleys I would have nearly guessed coke to be the biggest seller!
