      Their flavour is probably based on the Gros Michel variety of bananas, which was mostly wiped out by a blight in the 1950s. Most bananas these days are the Cavendish variety, which doesn’t taste the same.

      Are these the ones that produce epic levels of mucus as defense? I saw a video once of a frog try to eat one of those and it eventually gave up after its mouth was so full of mucus it couldn’t swallow
