I too am intrigued, so I found the following:

Sounds simple enough - is there anyone who has done this? Bacon is a hard one to replicate!

I haven't made banana peels specifically, but I have made this for some vegan guests before (as part of a larger dish) and while I wouldn't say it's bacon, it hits all the same notes: https://www.seriouseats.com/crispy-smoked-mushroom-bacon-bit...

Now I have to try it. Thanks for both links!

Maybe it's like bacon in the same way that spaghetti squash is like spaghetti? (Shape only)

You can make curry with them (either just the peels, or whole unripe bananas).
