To earn the Banana Eats Absolutely Rotten badge in the Roblox survival horror game Banana Eats (created by RyCitrus), you must eat 9 players in a single round. Because standard public servers cap at 10 players—one Banana and nine runners—obtaining this achievement means you must eliminate the entire runner roster before the timer expires or anyone escapes.
With an official win rate hovering around 0.1% according to badge tracking statistics, this is among the rarest performance achievements in the game.

Essential Requirements to Qualify
Earning this badge requires specific server conditions and round settings to be in place before you can even attempt it:
- A Full 10-Player Lobby: Because you need 9 individual runner eliminations, there must be at least 9 active runners present alongside you when the match begins.
- Playing as the Banana: You must be randomly selected as the solo Banana for the round. Modes like Banana Split assign two killer bananas, which naturally splits the kill pool and prevents a single player from claiming all 9 eliminations.
- Zero Disconnects: If a player leaves the match before you can eliminate them, your maximum possible kill count drops below 9, invalidating the badge attempt for that round.
- Zero Escapes: If even one runner successfully reaches an exit after the doors unlock, the badge cannot be unlocked during that match.
Core Mechanics for Eliminating All Runners
Eliminating an entire lobby requires managing the clock and understanding runner vulnerability states:
1. Managing Runner Health and Peel Traps
In standard Escape mode, runners have 3 points of lifespan and can survive two hits before being eaten on the third strike. To speed up hunts, place peel traps across bottlenecks, narrow doorways, and puzzle locations. When a runner steps on a peel, they slip, ragdoll briefly from the stun, and their location is highlighted, giving you an opening to close the distance.
2. Hunting Lockers and High-Traffic Puzzles
Runners lower the match countdown by 30 seconds for standard puzzles (or up to 60 seconds for cake puzzles) to force the exit gates open sooner. Check common puzzle cluster areas early in the match. If you suspect a runner is hiding inside a locker, touching the locker breaks it open and hits the hiding player.
3. Capitalizing on the Final Minute (Exit Phase)
When the match clock ticks down to 1 minute, the exit doors unlock. Two crucial rule changes take effect during this phase:
- The positions of all remaining runners are highlighted.
- Any runner hit by the Banana suffers an instant one-hit elimination, bypassing their remaining life counter.
If multiple runners are still alive when the exit phase triggers, immediately use the revealed outlines to intercept them along the pathways leading to the exit gates.
Best Map Conditions
Map layout heavily influences how easily a Banana can corner runners. Narrower, multi-floor layouts such as Banana Manor make it significantly easier to trap fugitives in dead ends. In contrast, vast or labyrinthine maps—such as the Banana Bag Room (the Backrooms-themed map) or the Ominous Supermarket—offer runners wide sightlines and long distances between exits, making a complete 9-player wipe considerably harder to pull off.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I earn the badge if a player leaves the server mid-game?
No. The badge requires exactly 9 player eliminations in a single round. If a player disconnects before you eat them, the server population drops and you will not be able to hit the 9-kill threshold.
Do bot kills count toward the Absolutely Rotten badge?
While disconnected Bananas are replaced by bot bananas, there is no official data confirming that bot runners replace disconnected players or count toward the 9-player threshold. You should aim to complete the challenge in a full public lobby of 10 human players.
What is the runner equivalent of this badge?
The counterpart runner achievement is Okay without K, which requires you to be the only survivor to escape in a round that started with at least 9 players.
