What I mean is that we have finer dexterity (and fine nails, don't know what they have) so we can open the small nub easier. I don't pinch, I cut in with my fingernail so it doesn't waste. Not that I know apes but I expect that's difficult for them. They brute force the stem end.

    I misread what you wrote. My bad.

    I’ve only ever heard that they open it from the nub end rather than the stem end, and growing up I only say people open bananas from the stem end. Idk if that’s changed, I’m certainly not paying attention.

    Well I went to double check and I have the whole thing inverted. Apparently monkeys open the nub end because it's riper and thus softer, and humans tend to open the stem end. Dunno, I always opened the nub end.
