Fascinating Fruit

I was listening to Fresh Air tonight and Terry Gross was talking with the author of the book Banana: The Fate of the Fruit That Changed the World.  Hello!  Are you experiencing the same urge to drive straight to the bookstore to get this book?  Is it just me?  Apparently bananas live a secret life as a fascinating fruit.  When I searched "bananas" on Amazon books, the first 4 titles that came back are about bananas and how they've shaped history.  

That kind of blows my mind, what about you?
