According to the Daily Star (via M&C), Amy was sauntering around the island when she ran into a group of locals smoking banana skins. Ever the open-minded gal that she is, she thought she’d buy what they were selling!
A source said:
“She made sure there wasn’t anything really bad in them because she’s being so good now. They made one in front of her using dried strings from the inside of the peel instead of tobacco and putting it onto a piece of rolling paper. She loved it and has taken to drying her own peel in the sun and smoking it in the evening.”
Back in the 60′s there was a song called “Mellow Yellow” , and the singer was Donovan. The chorus went something like… “and they call it mellow yellow…Quite Right!”. That was Banana leaves supposedly!
She must be a hippie at heart … I Googled this and found the following:
“The high is very very intense, and one can get addicted to it the first time you take a hit…. makes sex the most intense thing ever experienced… orgasms are heightened to the extent that some people are known to have gotten heart attacks…”
