Hiya banana leaves prevent skillet/pot sticking

My grandmother used to boil a few banana strips when her iron skillet would stick. The banana leaves secretes something that causes the skillet not to stick.

same goes for any pot that sticks.

It will lasts for months.

for the same token, banana stains will never come off an article of clothing.

That is so true about banana stains shopgirl2. I have some gardening clothes that are falling apart - but the stain is in perfect condition!
