@Niedzielski If you're talking about the strange Wikidata description, this isn't a bug. This is caused by a very persistent Wikidata contributor who insists on including this information in descriptions for some items, in spite of the fact that in contexts like this it makes zero sense. Look at the Wikidata item for banana and you'll see what I mean.

Indeed, that text comes from the Wikidata description for Banana. You're welcome to log on to Wikidata and edit the description to something sensible, then sit back and see what happens.

@Deskana, thanks!

...Then sit back and see what happens.

@Dbrant, lol, this sounds more like "here be dragons" :)
