    Have you ever had the chance to try plantains? They’re a bit like bananas but for cooking and while they can be used yellow, generally they are used green.

      I think I’ve had them once or twice and found them ok? But that was eating them like a banana. If they’re more intended for cooking, that may require another attempt…

        Yeah they’re only ever really used cooked. (I gather that they aren’t nearly as nice to eat raw and might make your stomach a bit upset if eaten raw but possibly are not actively bad for you like eating a raw potato is.) Cooked they’re pretty nice. Kinda like if a banana thought it was a potato.
