dilbert 1I got some Gros Michel bananas! Here is my review.<br><br>GROS MICHEL BANANA REVIEW:<br><br>Gros Michel was the worldwide banana strain until a blight wiped out commercial viability, leading in about the 1950s to a switch to a different banana for worldwide consumption (the "cavendish). Therefore, Gros Michel have become rare. They still exist cultivated in small quantities by heritage farms.<br><br>taste: tastes like a regular cavendish banana, albeit a good one. I did NOT detect that it reminded me of "banana candy flavor".<br><br>texture: denser, compacts more gooey in the mouth while chewing, which is pleasant on the tongue.<br><br>appearance: smaller but otherwise similar to cavendish, skin interior has more texture. It did not seem "slipperier" than a cavendish banana, contrary to claims. I will try making my dad slip on one later to see for sure.<br><br>RATING: 4/5 slightly superior banana, but just seems like a particularly good cavendish banana, so delightful but not worth the 17 dollars a banana I paid for the privilege of trying this rare heritage breed.<br><br>More information on the Gros Michel banana: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gros_Michel" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gros_Michel</a><br><br><a class="hashtag" href="https://shitposter.world/tag/banana" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Banana</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://shitposter.world/tag/review" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Review</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://shitposter.world/tag/mastodon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://shitposter.world/tag/feditips" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FediTips</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://shitposter.world/tag/foodstodon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Foodstodon</a>
