"Swedish tabloid Expressen revealed Wednesday that government officials have been ensuring in advance that all places frequented by Gender Equality Minister Paulina Brandberg are free of bananas — due to the minister’s strong phobia of the yellow fruit.
In several emails seen by Expressen and described and quoted from in its report, Brandberg’s staff specifically ask for any bananas to be removed before official visits.
“It’s sort of an allergy, you could say,” Brandberg told Expressen on Wednesday, then added, “It’s something that I get professional help with” in a follow-up email to the news outlet.
Brandberg’s office did not immediately respond to POLITICO’s request for comment.
Another email from Brandberg’s team sent to a county administrative board said that “no bananas are allowed on the premises.”
These guys use to be the Vikings? Europe is soft AF."
Of course it's a "Gender Equality Minister," and of course she/they/it conflates an ALLERGY and a MENTAL DISORDER. The commentator's line at the end, ha. F'ing bananas, man.

Re: Bananas
I mean, one internet search reveals 100s of articles about said subject. Would BBC suffice? Or are they part of the 90th percentile of right wing outlets?

We have more that 3000 news outlets here in the US of A. How many in the Great White North? I'll wait.
