The tricky part is the zero relative pronoun in your construction that could be confused for a highly irregular-verb-like use of like. You wouldn't say either of "he like(s) (a) banana" in standard english, unless taking Influence from creole perhaps. Another source of confusion to me is the difference of uncountability, generic nouns etc. The whole thing would work without the interjection in "fruit fly bananas" or vice versa, from "banana-like fruit fly".

TIL about zero relative pronouns, despite using them all the time and wondering about why we can elide them in English but not reliably in many other languages, e.g. "The car (optional that) I bought" vs. "El coche (required que) compré".
