I agree. It's simply bananas. I got that recipe from Weight
Watchers over 20 or more years ago, and had my teen son ask for them for his parties. He also asked that I not mention that they were supposed to be from Weight Watchers!!

A half a blender full of ice cubes.
Dump in a ripe peeled banana.
Fill to slightly above the ice cubes with milk.
Just a trace of vanilla.
Chocolate syrup, with a touch of cocoa, or Carob Powder.
A few chocolate chips, these will add a touch of crunch.
I usually added 3 or 4 maraschino cherries.
Some sort of sweetener..either artificial or Stevia or sugar.
Blend till creamy, enjoy. This will make 3 very large or 4 small servings.
Everything in this is adjustable and can be made to your own taste or your families'. The flavoring can be changed too, but always add the banana.
