Man, isn't that the truth! The whole ridiculous idea that consumers won't warm up to a different banana seems a bit absurd to me. I think that's the primary reason that Cavendish is still THE banana found in supermarkets. With so many great varieties out there, seems like diversity in the supermarket would be a good thing for the industry.
