Well, for all intents and purposes, the banana is usually considered to have a yellow outside and white inside, hence the pejorative metaphor.

I have never seen a banana with a yellow inside. Brown yes, but yellow, no.
I get the implication, I just think it's a little strange. Every banana I've ever seen has had pale yellow meat, like this:
