The Var' Equinallin?

Aha! I've got it! Spoilez alert!!!
The collective noun of a banana is bunch! And the nose of a banana is that black thing at the top! And if you say Var Equinallin fast enough it sounds suspiciously like "The bunch of noses belonging to a banana!" And once you reverse that it says "!ananab a ot gnignoleb seson fo hcnub ehT" Which roughly sounds like:
"Anna, nab a otter. No! Leg season for Hunch'd eyes nub et? Did I do good?

Of course, there are hints given to you in the thread that can provide useful, if you know how to interpret them.
You can also ask for additional hints from those who have already solved the riddle.

But I'm not good in those riddles! 'Equallin' sounds in my ears almost like a forbidden substance used by bodybuilders and 'var'' might be a abbreviation for 'various'. Maybe it's just a finnish term, but I don't speak finnish at all. How could I solve this riddle?

- It's EQUINALLIN, not EQUALLIN. Also, you don't need l33t f1nn15h sk1llz to solve the riddle.
-The answer is a granma.

Sorry. Yes you are right. Thank you. Now I understand at least the nature of the riddle, but this only means that I have chance to solve it in the next ten years. Tonight I will dream of it, I think. Is there any other hint, maybe somewhere hidden in the game?

Yeah, the answer is in the game, kinda. Well, partially. But you probably won't find it if you look for it.
It kinda sucks that only half of the answer is in the game though. The other half should be in there, too.

Yes... I didn't read your answer before but I think I've got it. You are kidding, aren't you? It's a little bit mean.
I was just playing around with the letters and formed a word out of them and suddenly I had an idea for the rest. Thank you. You made my day.

What do bananas grow in? According to my research, they grow on trees. According to further research the grow on plants which to not be trees.
"Amarth" said: What? No. What do you DO with a banana? Make chocolate-banana milkshakes of course!
