Chrissy Summons Brown Bananas From Twitter
In case you missed it, Chrissy Teigen made banana bread on Thursday. But it wasn’t just any ordinary weekday banana bread. Nope. There was excitement. Drama. An offering of John Legend’s underwear! And it was all thanks to Chrissy’s request for “6 BROWN bananas in the LA area,” the only ingredient missing from her pantry.
First, she issued the general call out.
ok this banana thing is getting ridiculous. don't tell me your banana browning hacks. just...if u have 6 BROWN bananas in the LA area lmk

Then she upped the ante, promising to reward the would-be banana angel with a signed copy of Cravings, her husband’s undies (not autographed), and makeup.
if u have 6 BROWN bananas in the LA area, I will send my assistant to your home with a signed cookbook, John's underwear and a Becca palette

She wasn’t playing.

And one person was Ruby Rose, but somehow Chrissy didn’t see her tweet in time.

But it didn’t take long for Chrissy to find those bananas!

She then sent her “assistant,” aka her lovely mother Vilailuk, to make the trade.

In the middle of all that, Chrissy took the time to acknowledge Kermit the Frog's sassiness in the other Chrissy Teigen Twitter moment of the week.
I think kermit just low key dissed me I love him even more now https://t.co/A79dpSb5QK

Then she started making the bread but just when things started looking up, Chrissy realized she was one banana short, because you know, not all bananas are the same size. (Let this be a lesson to all the aspiring banana bread makers out there.)
I really, really hate to say this but. I need one more banana pic.twitter.com/DBqKjQpSM7

In a matter of moments, Chrissy’s mom was back on the road for another banana deal.
