Yeah I can live without bananas. They’re not indigenous* to where I’m from (Portugal) so it makes little sense for me to pay for shipping from other countries while inevitably letting some go to spoil. There’s plenty of other fruit I can eat without making a bigger carbon footprint
*actually we have a variety of bananas from madeira island which is Portuguese. They are smaller than your regular banana but make up for it in taste cause they’re delicious (regular imported bananas don’t taste like much)
It always makes me wonder what delicious flavors nature has provided that I’m missing out on. Just like Banana’s in the states, we have a “main” variety of apple which is “Red Delicious” (it’s just a name, not delicious). This abomination is the prettiest picturesque apple you’ve ever seen, but it tastes like cardboard compared to any other apple species. I wish we still had access to all the different varieties of banana’s that used to be around but guess we’ve fucked that one up.
Sounds like you’re just not big on bananas
