Some GMB viewers were left extremely disappointed today after tuning in to watch the episode.
Good Morning Britain presenters Charlotte Hawkins and Robert Rinder were joined by Dr Hilary Jones and journalists Andrew Pierce and Kevin Maguire near the start of the show.
The stars discussed the correct way to peel open a banana.
Top or bottom?
Charlotte explained that a TikTok star had gone viral recently after stating that everyone is eating bananas the wrong way.
Apparently, bananas should be peeled from the bottom instead of the top where the stalk is.
Have we been peeling bananas wrong this entire time?

GMB today
When discussing the topic, Kevin made a confused face.
Charlotte then said: “Why are you looking confused, Kevin? There is a top and a bottom.”
Kevin responded: “I eat a couple of bananas a day, and the great thing about this is that you have the stalk – you pull it, it comes away easily.
“Doing this, you’ll get banana skin under your nail!”
The show then cut to a video of a monkey eating a banana who opened the banana from the top.
Charlotte exclaimed: “We were getting it right the whole way along!”
