That one is kind of a monster fat 'naner, most of them are smaller and more pointy. But what do I know, LOL

The flesh is a little darker yelow than the commercial (cavendish?) supermarket bananas, with a hint of orange when they are completely soft and the skin turns black. The taste is a bit more acidic than the commercial banana. The flesh doesn't turn dark brown when it sits exposed to air for a while like the commercial bananas do.
