Pisan Zaprapee-san zah-pra

n. The time needed to eat a banana. This surely varies from person to person, and from banana to banana, but general consensus is that it takes around two minutes to consume one. In Malay folklore, man-eating ghosts are said to reside in banana trees (pokok pisang) during the day.
