Well, I bet I’m the only one who knows the Banana Slug Song. If you’re very nice to me I’ll teach you all 5 verses.

_You know I love my baby,  
Love the way that she hugs,  
Some people don’t understand it,  
She’s a banana slug…_

My Grandfather used to eat those with bologna and pickles.

The mayo is so it doesn’t stick to the roof of your mouth.

That’s very cool! Thanks for introducing me to it. I’ll be listening to more of Kana, she’s adorable and interesting. After that, my bets are not so sure. I was going to list these, but you’ve probably heard of them, and own more than I do.
