Banana Fact: The banana flavoring used in most foods and candies is based off of an extinct variety of bananas, the Gros-Michel, which was destroyed by a killer fruit fungus that has also obliterated many other varieties as well. The variety we see in our supermarkets today are most similar to the Cavendish variety which is also at risk to disease as there is little to nothing to save the bananas from said infestation.

Isn't it amazing what we do with our foods genetics? I am not going to quote Al Gore in RnF but he shares a great deal of information on this topic throughout his keynote speeches and published works.

Bananachat! I think I read about this - the now extinct king of the banana market was a lot sweeter and creamier than what we buy today. Like dessert replacement quality. If our current variety follows the same path, we'll be dealing with a tart/sour variety in the future.

Does this ring a bell with anyone?

I use to take the floppy disks into computer lab to play Advanced Dungeons n Dragons games. Like Stronghold, Pools of Darkness, Eye of The Beholder. I got sick of Oregon Trail, and dying from dysentery.
