    I had to get whole body measured twice, and they were very insistent that it could tell if someone just ate a dozen bananas to juice their score…

    But I’m still pretty sure that was like telling kids the pool changed color if you peed in it.

      If I ate a dozen bananas you could tell - without any machinery.

            This guy has eaten two dozen bananas, at least.

    That’s such a fantastic conclusion: it’s the banana’s base chemical volatility you really need to be afraid of!

    Love it.
