You know what I fine amusing is that bananas in order not to ripen to quickly were shipped via a "refrigerated" ship (great white fleet) ... so I guess they were telling us please please eat more bananas and do not keep in your refrigerator !!!
The interesting thing is, this little movie is NOT a Chiquita Banana commercial. At least, it wasn't made as one. The song - which was originally used in radio commercials - got so popular that it was recorded and performed by regular musicians, as seen here. Thus the Chiquita brand got a ton of free advertising.
Yay! Chiquita! The nazis of bananas!

Oh so nice, the good old american way. Overthowing governments, sponsoring massacres, expanding monopoly. Those were the days!

@hebneh it was made originally a propaganda of United Fruit Company, of the actual "Chiquita" for people in the USA to learn how to eat bananas.
