Just step on one and find out! I know they are intestineally degradable. Evidence is in the plumbing.

If they weren't, where are all the million year old banana peels?

Depending on environment, it can take as little as 3-4 days to decompose them into humus.

If bananas were not, we'd be up to our necks in bananas. Speed of degradation varies with temperature, moisture, and the presence of organisms that feed on them.
