      Those bananas in the bottom pic definitely look edible to me. They taste better slightly overripe too.

      i kinda like green-ish ones, “bad” ones are also fine (still fully edible, even the black parts)

    It’s a very appealing fruit.

    I love bananas, but recently I became allergic. Seems related to my longstanding latex allergy. It’s too bad.

    I hate them. Can’t stand the texture, and the flavor isn’t even good. Like eating a soggy pasty log

    Unfortunately, also going extinct if we don’t play our cards right. All crop bananas are monocultures, basically clones, and there is a strain of fungus that has adapted to infect them with near 100% mortality rate. A single speck of contaminated soil can destroy an entire field, and it is only aggravated by the effects of climate change which are already devastating food production in general. In fact, we’ve already lost one banana cultivar to another very similar fungus. Commenting not to be a downer but to raise awareness of this active and serious issue. Bananas are a staple crop that many people depend on to survive, both economically and directly as a source of food. Programs are underway to save them but success is far from guaranteed.

    I will never try the tasty bananas.

    The only bananas I will ever eat were thought of as trash by the people that got to eat the tasty bananas.

    The closest I will ever come is the artificial flavor in the runtz candy bananas.

        I knew they had a more official name than “tasty banana” but I couldn’t think of it, thank

    And you can make banana bread if you accidentally on purpose buy too many to eat before they go soft.

      You mean you can tell yourself that and soothe your mistakes. But you and I both know you’re gonna keep pushing off baking that bread until your bananas are finally unusable
