A team of researchers have proven conclusively that bananas do have seeds. In a rigorous experiment, the tiny black specks found in bananas were extracted using a heavy water centrifuge.  The seeds were selected for size, color and taste and then planted in a mound of bat guano.  The results were unequivocal – bananas do have viable seeds. All the seeds sprouted, and developed into banana plants as shown in the photo.
