Someone correct me if I am wrong!! I'm pretty sure you can eat ANY part of the banana plant!! Taste is another thing!! I would t want to eat it haha. It would all be so astringent!! Next time your buying groceries. Buy a big green plantain. Peel it and fry it!! As your frying the pieces eat a green piece!! That is what I would think all the other parts of the banana plant would taste like. You may get some in your mouth but I bet you spit it out fast haha.
Look on YouTube how to clean and eat the bud!! That is pretty popular. I have tried to do this a couple times and it just wasn't for me. People eat it all around the world though. It's mostly the flowers! You just have to pull the hard plastic like part from them. Just YouTube it and see. if you do try the bud let me know what you think of the taste!!! I didn't like it! Lol
