I tried not using a banana and what a mess. It is the banana that makes it, that's why it is call Yonanas. It takes a lot of berries or other fruit to get it to go through the chute. I don't recommend this machine.

The recipe book includes several recipes that don't used bananas. But most recipes do.

I believe so. Must be frozen . We cut and freeze in halves. Consider adding individually frozen berries. Works best

No, you do not always have to use bananas and when you add another fruit with the banana it typically takes on the flavor of the other fruit. So, if you're not big on bananas it's probably a good way to include bananas into your diet without the 'banana' flavor taking over!Must be frozen fruit! I used a bunch of small fruits the other day and it got a bit messy at first, is why they suggest starting with a banana. I added frozen peaches and it smoothed out the messiness. It sort of scatters if not using banana.

Yay! I hope you like it as much as I do. Plan on getting used to it for a few days. Add things like banana and peanut butter, or blueberries, at first so that you get used to the flavor. Enjoy!

Lol bananas? Lol yeah right! It does smell "garlicy" and like toxic. You can try to dilute it with almond oil or something.

i didn't care for the texture a with day old mixture. I mix only what I am prepared to eat in one setting. I mostly use in my shakes.

You don't have to use bananas - if you don't it's more like making a sorbet. Bananas give it the creamy texture closer to ice cream, but you can you use basically whatever you want. I use it without bananas all the time.

I drink it with water or sometimes work in a mashed banana. It's OK with water but not great. I just down it then wash my mouth out to get rid of the taste it inevitably leaves. Remember - it's protein and just plain isn't going to taste that good. Hope that helps.

Yes John, the machine works best with yuca or cassava - the green bananas are a bit tricky and have had mixed reviews.

I usually never use the mix-ins, I do use peanut butter or banana it taste so good, also I add water instead if milk sometimes and it still taste good. You can add it in your coffee in any drinks too. Hope that answers your question if not let me know :) have a great weekend mary

I have. Make sure you do it in between bananas or it will all come out in a puff :)

I think you mean bananas. You can use other frozen fruits, but the result is less creamy, more like sorbet.

My favorite (and my husbands) by far is the coconut...but I LOVE coconut! I also like the ones with chocolate and/or peanut butter. Not too fond of the banana or carrot cake.

I never use the flavor packets. Instead I have been using fruit juice or the concentrated water enhances like Mio. Great varieties to use at your everyday supermarket.

I don't like the sweet flavor, so, I chose natural. It was fine for me but I don't mind things that make me feel better but don't taste great.

Personal preference, I think. I'm not fond of sweet smells like vanilla and strawberry. I prefer citrus scents or eucalyptus.

Sorry Shopper, I don't know. I have tried Tropical TRADitions , nutiva, artisana, and some Walmart stuff. Nutiva and Artisana have tasted best so far, next I will try Tropics Best. it sounds really good, just less known. Artisana is super smoothe but expensive

I couldn't use a banana plug on my speakers, I normally prefer banana plugs given the choice. I think sound quality is the same.
