| '''Green bananas''' appear as items in a few [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'']]–related games, particularly the [[Donkey Kong Country (series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' series]] and ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. Green bananas have little difference from [[banana]]s besides their light-green peel, comparable to [[Blue Banana]]s and their light-blue peels.

| ==History==
| | A '''Green Banana''' is an item from the [[Donkey Kong (series)|''Donkey Kong'' series]]. It is similar in appearance to a regular [[Banana]], except for the fact that it is green. Despite its coloring, a Green Banana isn't an unripe standard banana. |

| |
| Green bananas are featured in certain [[Bonus Level]]s, of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'', where the goal is for [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] to collect fifteen of them [[Time Limit|on time]] for a [[Bonus Coin (Donkey Kong franchise)|Bonus Coin]]. Only one green banana spawns at a time, as well as in random spots. After a few seconds, if the green banana is not collected, it disappears before respawning elsewhere on the map.

| Through the use of the "MERRY" [[Cheat code|code]], which gives the Bonus Levels of the game a Christmas theme, the green bananas are replaced with presents, which serve the same purpose.

They are the same as ordinary [[Banana Bunch]]es, being worth ten [[banana]]s when collected, but their purpose is to indicate that a [[DK Sticker Pack]] is hidden nearby. By re-entering a level where the DK Sticker Pack has been obtained, the green banana becomes a regular Banana Bunch.

| ===''Donkey Kong 64''===
| | Green Bananas first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'', where they are found in certain [[Bonus Area]]s. In these Bonus Areas, the object is for [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] to collect fifteen of them within a time-limit. If they succeed, they are awarded with a [[Bonus Coin]]. The catch here is that only one Green Banana appears at a time, and they appear in random spots, forcing the [[Kong]]s into scrambling to collect them. If the Kongs aren't fast enough, any uncollected Green Bananas disappear. |

| Green bananas in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' can be collected by only [[Chunky Kong]], appearing semi-transparent and non-tangible otherwise. The first seven stages each have 100 green bananas, and like the other banana colors, green bananas are required to feed [[Scoff]]. Green [[Banana Bunch]]es also debut, being worth five green bananas, and popping a green [[Banana Balloon]] with the [[Pineapple Launcher]] earns Chunky ten green bananas.

| ===''Donkey Kong Country'' television series===
| | Through the use of a code, which can give the Bonus Areas of the game a Christmas theme, the Green Bananas are replaced with presents, which serve the same purpose. |
| In the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' animated series, green bananas of a different type appear in the episode "[[Watch the Skies]]". They are eaten by Diddy, who believes it would keep the aliens away. Later, when he sees [[General Klump]] sleepwalking and mistakes him for an alien, Diddy shoots a green banana out of its skin at him, waking him up.
