The Experience of Eating Homemade Bananas Foster

The first taste that hits you

is that of the banana. After that,

 

it’s the rum that’s in the fruit, and the caramel

from the flame that burnt the rum off. The caramel! It colors

 

the vanilla ice cream.

 

Taken altogether,

the bananas, the burnt rum, the ice cream, they

dance new kinds of dancing on your tongue.
