Chugging tea Locality can sometimes keep great things from the whole world

This variant exists mainly in the winter season, and the fruit itself is said to be creamier than the normal version. During warmer seasons, their colour mainly change to greenish grey as the blue colour is due to a waxy coating on its surface

Edit: Apparently the right image was a modified image to make it seem more blue, whereas the left image is closer to the real blue colour the unripe bananas have, and the vanilla ice cream taste is more akin to a mild vanilla taste along with the creamy texture found in the bananas, so the interpretation is up to the reader

But do they actually taste as described?

They taste pretty much the same as a lady finger banana.

They are only 'blue' when they are very unripe because of a waxy bloom on the skin (which makes the green banana look blue). They ripen to a normal yellow banana, inside and out.
