Not sure about other people, but I'd back off.
It`s nowhere even close to that strong.
You could say it with absolutely no one backing off - unless, of course, you were saying it in that tone of voice.

I can`t think of a normal situation where I would just say バナナ美味しいですよ to someone out of the blue. To be more exact, I can`t come up with any situation where I would feel the need to tell anyone that bananas tasted good to begin with. Maybe このバナナ美味しいですよ, or あの店のバナナ美味しいですよ, etc

Or maybe if I were eating a banana and someone came up and expressed disgust, I might respond with the like.


If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.
