edit"The Brennan family also owns Commander's Palace and several other New Orleans restaurants." I think this sentence is totally unnecessary and should not figure in a topic about Bananas Foster. Is it about the bananas or the family and its businesses?

editI replaced Image:Making Bananas Foster.jpg with Image:Banana flambé - by Jenene.jpg thinking it was 'more free', before seeing that the former was GFDL. I left it commented in the article. So, any comments as to which image or images to put in the article? --Christopherlin 07:50, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

- It's the turning point when Maeby asks George Mchael "what would Pop-Pop do?" He then eyes the bananas foster and decides to burn down the banana stand, which is the major plot of the show. Elefuntboy 18:26, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Emeril's Banana Tent
editA few years ago on The Essesnce of Emeril on the Food Network, Lagasse made something he called a "Banana Tent" as a quick dessert to go with some entre he was making if I recall correctly. I may not as the Food Networks website mentions other dessert from the same episode or perhaps he has done this Banana Tent more than once. It was a banana halved lengthwise with butter, rum, vanilla, and brown and white sugar all sealed in aluminum foil and baked in the oven for ten minutes. If I remember correctly, on the show he served it with ice cream. My recollection is that on the show the ingredients list was much more simple than the recipe from the Food Network website credited to Lagassee. http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_9724,00.html 192.88.165.35 14:11, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
