claim: Eating eggs and banana at the same time will kill a man in five minutes.
evidence: Since early 2017, the Internet has been littered with "warnings" about the dangers of eating bananas and eggs together (or serially): [...] It is unlikely, for example, that a large restaurant chain such as Denny’s would so enthusiastically promote their "salted caramel banana cream pancake breakfast" (which contains both eggs and bananas) if the risk of death were real. Similarly, the risks of Starbucks' banana bread, which is made with eggs and bananas, would likely discourage the coffee chain from prominently featuring the product in their pastry section if it were going to kill the company's customers. We have uncovered no evidence the story referenced in the warning of a young man's dropping dead on the spot after consuming a banana and an egg is real, and we understand no mechanism by which a person’s death could be triggered by the consumption of a benign egg and banana combination, absent a severe allergy to either food.
