i just give it a little squeeze and it splits in two and it’s the easiest thing to pull apart, way easier than trying to get the stem part to separate unless you have a knife and cut it first…
I just break the outer layer on the inside of the stem base with my thumbnail and the stem lets me peel the first part back like a cartoon character. If I want the whole thing out I peel most of the way down and squeeze the opposite end to pull out the whole thing or eat my way down and use it to pop out the last part without that little seedy nub thing.
No knife needed and the peel keeps my hands clean. Easy peasy.

if i’m at home… i just cut 'em in half and peel from the cut. often i just want half anyway, and an unpeeled half banana will keep for awhile.
