I can't think of any single item that triggers more dramatic episodes with our daughter than the regular old banana.
The problem with the banana is that we always have some, it's portable, tastes good and can break. The portability and good taste make it the go-to food for situation's where hunger is present and a meal is too far away. So, it's what she has a tendency to be eating when she's already fussy.
The real drama - tears and thrashing - begins when it breaks. The other day she peeled her own for the first time, and was making a point to show off her accomplishment. Unfortunately, she peeled it a little too far, it broke, and this was followed by screams, tears and a futile attempt to force the banana back together.
