Re: Mega Ice Cream?
Richard,
It is nothing like the plant I have that was labeled "Cardaba". So maybe my Cardaba is not a Cardaba?! Mine is a short, fat, sweet banana.
These have ripened, and the more I look at them, they look and behave like Saba and Praying Handds, which I have always felt were very closely related. Everything about this banana says that it is related to those two: the size, the way the peel "scars" at the end, the angularity of the shape, generally 5 sided, and the flavor is so very similar as well.
I think it will need to be classified as Giant Blue Saba.
A fellow fruit grower took some home to his Philppino wife tonight, and I'll get her impressions and see if she recognizes it from the archipelago.
