A banana split was a type of ice cream made with bananas^[1] that was edible by humans.^[2] The ice cream was popular among First Order stormtroopers stationed aboard the Mega-class Star Dreadnought Supremacy. Shortly before the Battle of Oetchi^[1] of 34 ABY,^[3] a First Order stormtrooper prepared and served the dessert during a banana split party held for a large gathering of troops. The dessert featured a fifty-foot-long banana and a multi-colored arrangement of ice cream topped with various foods, drawing praise from the stormtroopers, with one suggesting they have it every Sunday.^[1]

When the celebration was abruptly interrupted by Resistance forces launching a surprise assault on the Supremacy, an AT-ST walker piloted by^[1] the BB unit^[4] BB-8 slipped on the oversized banana peel left from the party, toppling onto the banana split and causing disorder among the First Order ranks. The incident inadvertently aided the Resistance in turning the tide of the battle.^[1]
