![]() Only 1 Iholena a couple years ago and I don't remember the details. I have a friend in the situation now as they looked filled out and ready earlier because they are already more yellow than most types. She picked of one and ate it out of hand once very yellow, and loved it.

![]() Just thought I'd let you know the box arrived in decent condition to PA. A few fruits were ripe - and I have to admit I even ate parts of the two bananas used as packing material!
The ones I've tried had a great taste and texture - much different than typical store bananas! Thanks Erik G |

![]() I got to try some banana types that I would never have had the opportunity. If you ever do that again, let me know. I even tasted the packing. What were the longer ones with the orangeish flesh? They were fantastic. I assume the small ones were the vc, very good, the packing was the sweetheart, and the fourth type is majorly different than anything in the stores and better tho a little tart.

![]() The SH-3640 was my favorite tasting one, althought I'd probably have to try FHIA-03 again in a less goopy state.
BTW, both of my little ones are just about ripe. |

![]() The FHIA-21 were definitely our favorite and that is all time fav. Could spending 6 days aside of over ripe bananas have sweetened them up? The SH-360 were as good as store bought, not as sweet and a little tangy and tasty. The 2 little ones did turn yellow and had a good flavor but a little under developed, I think we would like them.
