Abstract
A device for peeling a green banana and plantain comprising a handle to be grasped by a first hand of a person. A curved peeling tip extends outwardly from an end of the handle to fit under a skin of the green banana and plantain, in which both ends are cut off and the skin has a plurality of lengthwise slits. A curved shield extends at a rearward angle up from a top surface of the curved peeling, so as to protect a nail of a thumb of the first hand grasping the handle when pushing forward to peel the skin off of the green banana and plantain held in a second hand of the person.
