How can I use 'make no bones about something' in a sentence?

 

Make no bones about it.

to make no mistake (about it); no need to doubt it; absolutely.
 
Examples: This is the greatest cake I've ever eaten. Make no bones about it.
 
Make no bones about it, Mary is a great singer.

Thank you Ma'am.

I would also like to know where the idiom "Go bananas" comes from?

 

 

The phrase "go bananas" may be associated with wild activities by monkeys who became acclimated to bananas as food (similar to the phrase go ape).
Or it may refer to wild, drunken behavior caused by drinking Indonesian native concoctions made from fermented bananas.
