Yes, we have no bananas, we have no bananas today!

It is typical that is, I have had it happen to me a couple of times and I get so annoyed, the shop always seems to have plenty in until I want it. I always know too, as soon as I get to the supermarket I think to myself I bet they have not got any, and usually they have not!

Yes...though I have to admit it is usually me forgetting something. I'd have to put wafers next to bananas on the list for the next trip, though...the ones on the my shelf would never last until the next trip to the store. ;) They call out your name, you know...shhh...maybe they won't think you're home.

There is a big sign up at our store stating the weather is the cause of no bananas. I certainly was disappointed, as love to eat them. I was going to make banana muffins on Monday, but that didn't happen. I had to settle for apple muffins, which didn't go over well in my house.

Funny you should mention, no bananas. I went to the store myself and always buy bananas cause they are so good for preventing muscle cramps and I went to the banana place and just like you, no bananas at all. I went and did the rest of my shopping and came back, just knowing there would be out, but no, no bananas. So know what you were going through. And I live 15 miles from the grocery store, so it isn't like I could just go back the next day. One thing that you have accomplished is that now everyone wants to fix banana pudding and so we will probably all be out of bananas again at the grocery story.

Yes, Ithink it happens to us all at one point or another.Most recently I went to the store. I had plansto make a meatloaf for dinner. Guess what,no ground round. Needless to say we had chicken for dinner. Hope you get your bananas soon. My daughter would think it is yummy.

That sounds like about how things would go for me. I have went to make something and been out of one thing luckily the grocery store is only a half a block away so I usually just send my son over to get what I need. Bannana pudding sounds really good right now!

a store without bananas what a scary thought.

This usually happens right before a major storm or a holiday and we are late..Like for Easter, I almost missed out on getting peeps, I got them the Monday after Easter at the last store we checked.. As for the missing bananas, maybe my son was there.. When my husband brings home bananas, if anyone wants one, they have to hide one away or my son will eat them up..

Our local WalMart runs out most Tuesdays! Tuesdays is commonly known in-store as "Banana Day" Up until the last few weeks we always had really cheap bananas on Tuesdays (19c). The current price increases have stopped this practice but we still match to the cheapest in the area (25c. When they were always on sale Tuesdays it brought out all the old folk who bought 2/3/4 bunches of them and at some point late afternoon/evening we would always run out.

You could always take those ingredients and make a 'fake' trifle. I did that once with nill wafers and pudding. I added fresh fruit and layered it all in a bowl. Let is sit a few hours and the fruit juice soaks into the wafers. Add whip cream on top and it is SUPER yummy. I wanted to make trifle with the traditional ladies fingers and custard but couldn't find either where I was living so I did that instead. All is not lost!

I think that is odd they didn't have any banana's Marie Anne. Hmmmm I wonder what happened to them. I hate that to, when you have your heart set on something and then thru no fault of your own, you are unable to have it. Frustrating for sure. A Murphys Law kind of thing, I would say. It had been some time since it has happened to me, but I know just what you are talking about. Hope you enjoy that pudding when you finaly are able to get those banana's.

I'm sure it's happened to me though I can't exactly remember the circumstances. But hey bring your pudding and vanilla wafers over here, I have nanners!

We have this problem all the time at my job. I work for Wal-Mart, and every night around 4am we get a skid of banana boxes in. The skid usually has so many big banana boxes that it's clear above my own head, and I'm 5'5, and I can't reach the top box. It's also extremely heavy, as each box weighs about 50lbs. On the weekends, we sometimes get a skid and a half, but by around 8pm everynight, we run out of bananas. It's a constant problem in our store, and I think they should just up the order, but they don't. There are tons of complaints each night because of this. I personally complain about it myself, because sometimes when I get into work around 9:30pm, I want a banana to have for my lunch break around 2:30am. I rarely ever get to have a banana for break, unless I come in really early and get my banana, or end up going to another store. I'm sorry you didn't get to make your banana pudding, I'm sure it would have been great. I too want to make some now, because I absolutly LOVE banana pudding, yum. Thanks for the idea! I hope I'll be able to wrestle some bananas out of some other person's hands at work, because I know the banana table will most likely be empty!

Your lonely little vanilla wafers are VERY VERY lonely now. I ate most of them with a glass of milk last night. Make sure you add vanilla wafers to he shopping list or your next singing gig will be yes we have no vanilla wafers to go along with the non bananas.

oh, how disappointing. It has happened from time to time when I get my heart and my stomach all prepared to make something even get started in the process to find we do not have a crucial ingredient. it really irks me because I may have bought that ingredient anticipating making this dish and someone consumed it sneakily! it could be milk or chocolate chips or some sort of nut. I think, though, if it was bananas and I was in town I would have gone to another store to buy them - if another store existed.

oh that sounds like my dumb luck. Anyway, thank you so much for putting that annoying song in my head.

Without the banana for the banana pudding, one can go bananas. Hmm, what could be done without the banana? Hope you were able to buy bananas already. How's the pudding?

That has happened to me many times. I usually stock most of the provisions. Somethings will be there remaining from the last month's provisions. So I buy less of that quantity or completely leave that out for the month. Once I wanted to make biriyani. My daughter was coming with her husband. He had requested that particularly. I thought I had basmathi rice left at home, so bought everything else and came home to find less amount of rice remaining. Oh God I had to rush my husband to the shop to get some for me, luckily they were coming only the next day. These are notin our hands. We'll go thinking to buy something but end up buying something instead. All the best

I wentto the store to get the makings for a tuna noodlecasserole and thought i had everything that I needed but got home and I had forgot the noodles and what is a tuna noodle casserole without the noodles? and the store had closed so had to wait til the next day and I had had mymouth all set for a late tuna noodle casserole aw well.

Thats sounds like my kind of luck ;) Your banana pudding sounds like its going to be really good when you do get the chance to make it
