		<description><![CDATA[112 Ninth Ave., two guys who love candy. Yes, I&#8217;m on vacation. There&#8217;s some real banana news &#8211; World Trade Organization stuff &#8211; but you can go ahead and click this preloaded Google news search for more info (the global tariff battles on bananas have been going on for years, and will last longer than mine &#8211; and your &#8211; next ten holidays. I promise. I&#8217;m off for a while longer.)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Is this cyclist named after the famous banana? (Photo from the Telegraph UK) British cyclist Mark Cavendish won the fifth stage of the Tour de France. I&#8217;ve gotten several notes (including one from my dad) wondering whether he&#8217;s related to the Cavendish family from whose name the world&#8217;s most popular banana variety was derived. I&#8217;ve checked around, and the answer is that I don&#8217;t know. If you do, post a comment below. In the meantime: Here&#8217;s an article in Bicycling magazine that explains why the banana is &#8220;cycling&#8217;s perfect food.&#8221; Here&#8217;s a previous entry on the Cavendish family connection to bananas. Here&#8217;s a link to an outdated book I wrote about the Tour de France. Cavendish&#8217;s personal website is here; his Wikipedia entry is here.]]></description>
