I do grow sucrier and Kluay Khai. Though without tasting them side by side I don't know if there is much difference. The KK is sold all over Hawaii at nurseries via Novelty Greens. I've been seeing the TC plants of these for sale lately, for the first time in a couple years. I'm currently enjoying some oritos here in the Galapagos. Am also eating "seda" and trying to figure out what they are. Sort of cavendish like but a more Gros Michel taste and color. Very tasty!
