    They were all straight before we fucked with them.

      I didn’t realize how similar they were to pawpaws! That’s so interesting, thank you for this picture.

        I’m Googling and I don’t think they’re actually related. They’re from totally different parts of the world. But it’s probably another excellent example of convergent evolution.

      Idk man, I think it has to do more with size rather than seeded/seedless. I’ve had small and large bananas both, all seedless. Small ones are always straight, big ones always curved. It’s just how they grow out of the petals.
