Lady Finger Fruit at...
the market in San Antonio. I spent the day nursery hopping and stopped at the Central Market to pick up a few things to grill this weekend. I was surprised to see that in addition to the normal commercial bananas and plantains they had Red cooking bananas and these Lady Fingers.
I placed the a bunch under the sign for the photo. The angle of the photo makes them look a little bigger than they are. I purchased a small bunch and ate one on the way home. it was very good; sweet with a pleasant apple aftertaste. I was also surprised that I found seven different types of banana plants at the local nurseries I visited.

Re: Lady Finger Fruit at...
I found some of those at my local grocery store in Iowa this winter. I believe they are 'ninos' but I'm not entirely sure on that (though nino means baby in Spanish, so it kinda makes sense). They definitely are tasty though!

Re: Lady Finger Fruit at...
These are my favorite, but I have noticed they dont last long they turn brown very quickly.
