Banania 2012 Wall Calendar | |||||||||||
![]() | Banania Wall Calendar: Banania is a popular chocolate drink in France. The original recipe was discovered in 1909 by the journalist Pierre Lardet during a visit near Lake Managua, Nicaragua. In 1912, the marketing of Banania began with the picture of an Antillaise. Her image was replaced in 1915 with the drawing of a Senegalese man. At the outset of World War I, the popularity of the colonial troops at the time led to the replacement of the West Indian by a smiling Senegalese infantry man enjoying Banania. Pierre Lardet took it upon himself to distribute the product to the Army, using the line for our soldiers: the abundant food which keeps, using the least possible space. The original advertising has become a cultural icon. Posters and reproduction tin-plate signs of the pre-war advertising continue to be sold. Calendar week begins with Monday.
