If you ever try bananas from Philippines, the Latundan is great. In general, once you taste how good all the different bananas can be, you'll never want to just go back to the Cavendish which is mostly boring.
- rob74 2y agoI assume that bananas that ripen naturally also taste better than those picked green, shipped halfway across the world and then ripened in ripening chambers? I tried various bananas in South America, but not a naturally ripened Cavendish, so I can't say for sure, but I know that this is the case for tomatoes.
- YeGoblynQueenne 2y agoYeah, tomatoes only taste of tomato in the heart of summer, and even then you better be in a place that produces them rather than one that imports them. I'm guessing that's because tomatoes are fruit and fruit always tastes better when it's in season. For instance, I wonder if I've ever known the true taste of ripe mango. I have eaten plenty of mangoes, but I only ever eat them in the UK, where they're imported. I suspect that they taste very differently (as in much better) if you pick them from a tree in the right season. I bet South-East Asians in the UK must turn their noses up to the local mango supply, like I do with, well, most veg really.
