banana-phobic

adj. Full of dread for that long, nummy, yellow fruit that is sometimes a metaphor.

Real citation: "I wish dp would eat banana. He is banana-phobic and won't come downstairs when I or dd eat one. Means we can't have them very often. "

Made-up citation: "My mom is banana-phobic and my dad is rutabaga-petrified. No wonder I'm screwed up."
