How to peel the banana, the Japanese way!

During my breakfast today in Taipei, I sat next to a table where a family of 3 was from Japan. The japanese girl was trying to peel a banana. What she did she lift up a one hand holding the banana and the other hand holding a knife trying to cut the trunk of the banana. She tried a few times but it's not working! I found the entire action was so polite, excessively polite, but not achieving anything.

Finally, the husband or boyfriend just snatch the banana, use his fingers, break the trunk and peel! Sometimes, the conservative way may be the best way!
