What is the technical name of the banana that is yellow, curved and commonly found in stores?
Has this kind of banana always been curved?
I have heard that man has altered them and that is why they are curved, but I have lived in Taichung, Taiwan about 21 years now and am sure that I've seen wild banana trees that would not have been altered. Therefore, I believe them to always have been curved.
I find it interesting that there is tour group coming to look at them. Taiwan has a lot of good fruit.
