LXIII: Mr. Hung III
“You know bananas are going extinct,” said Mr. Hung at work yesterday. We were working on a big order.
“What are you talking about?”
“Yeah. We’ve been genetically altering them so much that they’re just going to disappear.”
I was silent for a long time, watching Mr. Hung grate cheese as I chopped onions. “That’s amazing.”
He looked at me. “Yeah.”
“Oh man, I can’t believe that.” I stopped chopping and stared out the kitchen window. “Bananas? Crazy.”
Mr. Hung chuckled. "I thought you'd like that."
After work I delivered ten bagged meals to the Lions club.

You are absolutely right. The cavendish is going extinct due to disease. Will you mourn the cavendish? That's just bananas!
I'm glad you followed the link.
I was crushed to find The Boss was incorrect.
