It is confusing, which is why the term is probably better avoided or clarification is needed if one refers to a banana as ladyfinger.
If someone claims to have a ladyfinger, should I be asking what variety of ladyfinger they have, oh I see, you just stated that further clarification would be needed. Thanks Rob, you have been very helpful. I believe I'Lloyd just avoid the term.
