There is a difference in cooking bananas. Some have a lot more starch in them. Hua Moa gets my vote as the best cooking banana - not too much starch. Definitely my favorite. It makes great tostones!

Our local grocery stores have been carrying different bananas also. I have seen red bananas and little tiny bananas labeled as "baby bananas". I've been buying the red ones instead of the yellow ones lately. Love the color of the skins and the taste of the reds.
