In case you want to do it using a script:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/ksh

v_banana="false"
v_output=""

while read LINE
do
    if [ "$LINE" = "/Start" ]
    then
        v_output="${LINE}\n"

    elif [ "$LINE" = "End/" ]
    then
        v_output="${v_output}${LINE}\n"

        if [ "$v_banana" = "true" ]
        then
            echo "$v_output"
        fi
        v_output=""
        v_banana="false"
    else
        v_output="${v_output}${LINE}\n"

        if [[ $LINE = *Banana* ]]
        then
            v_banana="true"
        fi
    fi
done < infile
