You still can... lol. In fact, in the prisons throughout Puerto Rico, they serve bananas without the skin because inmates can dry the skin and smoke it. In some countries, they use the banana leaves to make a "blunt" rather than using tobacco rollers. But there are far better uses like making a tea (health benefits) and even using it to dress wounds. |
