Zazzaro703 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Typical of certain subset of society to feel threatened by the more educated. You must be Trumpettes. I'm happy and proud to be a banana elitist.Oh yeah? If you don't knock this elitist crap off, Ill be forced to write Trump 2016 in chalk outside the front of your house to hold you hostage inside your safe space. I agree with you, GMO = I'll try my absolute best not to touch it. That is getting extremely hard in the US as they are now fighting to make it so they don't have to put that a food is GMO on the label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Excuses Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 There is no evidence that GMO crops are dangerous or unsafe for consumption. The labeling is an absolutely unnecessary drag on the agricultural community, that will demonize a technology based on pseudoscience spread by junk organizations like Greenpeace.

The 12th Commandment Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 GMO isn't my issue with the cavendish. It just tastes like ass compared to other varieties. It's foolishness to place all you banana eggs in one basket as the banana moguls are figuring out. This will force the industry to innovate some new, hopefully better varieties than can take shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcsluggo Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I believe that your "special bananas" are better than my "standard bananas". but that is far far far different than saying my standard-bananas absolutely suck. i made homemade ice cream last weekend. Half fresh vanilla (rather than extract) and half banana -- standard banana . It was better than your Breyers or your Ben&Jerry's or your Haagen Daas........ but damned if Breyers Ben&Jerry and Haagen Daas aren't damned delicious! --- and by the way, i am literally eating a damned delicious standard -banana as i type this. yellow, with spots setting in..... ****ing delicious and cheap!

The 12th Commandment Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Ignorance really is bliss. I've been known to eat many a craptastic banana because it's a damn side better than no banana. I'll grant you that. But if a banana revolution/evolution is in the offing then I'm rooting for some truly delicious representative of banana kind to rock my world.

Koolblue13 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Come to the tropics and eat some fat short fig mehson and then go try a store bought one. You won't be sitting around hammering Cavendish down your gullet for long. This isn't like ice cream or pizza either. Btw, ever make ice cream with just bananas? Amazing.

Malapropismic Depository Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 There's a lot of money in bananas. I've peeled many a banana, and not once did I ever find cash inside. Not even a scratch-off lotto ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 So the current most popular banana is threatened, but there a great many other varieties already in existence. The solution seems obvious, but I know nothing about the industry and that means I'm entirely wrong and the solution actually involves tremendous suffering. Why not just start to shift to different varieties of banana? Maybe even clone four kinds next time if you must clone the damn things. I can get multiple types of lettuce, which really strikes me as excessive btw, why must bananas be different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current breed prospered at mass scale because it is much easier to grow it in different conditions and for transportation/trade. The rest at least to my understanding are limited to regional growth and distribution only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malapropismic Depository Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 The timing is interesting, on this report. It comes at a time when Cuban relations are revived. Which opens the door for all of us to eat Cuban Plantains as a Banana replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfitzo53 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 I like bananas way better when they have just the tiniest shade of green left. When they start to get spotted they're too sweet and I think the texture gets worse. I have zero problems making banana bread or pudding out of them though. Yum.
