PSA: Banana Choc-Tops

Jump to Comments

This is a Public Service Announcement.

All cinema goers are warned to avoid Banana Choc-Tops at all costs.  Do not be deceived by pretty advertising and a childhood addiction to those chewy banana lollies.  Although they taste exactly the same, the choc-top is a far more dangerous beast.

The modus operandi of the Banana Choc-Top is to lure the unsuspecting cinema-goer into scarfing down the entire confection, which is an enjoyable enough experience.

However, almost immediately, the consequences of this innocent action will be felt.  Symptoms start with moderately banana-flavoured burps which are exascerbated by soft-drink consumption.  This will progress to banana-flavoured belches.  Severe cases may result in banana-flavoured hiccups.  While not dangerous, these symptoms may continue without any lessening in strength for at least 8 hours.  And, although banana-flavoured eruptions and exhalations are not particularly nasty, they ARE rather unfortunate when one is attempting to eat expensive sushi for dinner or for consuming any other non-banana-compatible food item.

Banana choc-tops have been spotted at Hoyts Candybars only at this point, but may be spreading further.  If you see one, back away slowly and do not make eye-contact.
