Hard to see how an individual could use this on a practical basis.
Perhaps a restaurant could save it’s daily banana peals, dry them, and grind them to flour, but for a regular person, that would be too much work.
Also, the resulting flour can only replace 10% of the wheat flour, so it’s likely most restaurants wouldn’t bother either.
I have tried to make banana peel bacon, but the results weren’t very enjoyable.

Also, bananas use a *lot* of pesticide. It doesn’t effect the peeled banana, but no one worries about pesticides on the skin.
