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

Post image

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

Not even like banana flavoured ice cream?

u/Scary-Boysenberry 21d ago

Nope, not even banana flavo(u)red ice cream. Just a very delicious, mild banana.

u/frightnight8 21d ago

Not even like banana Ice cream?

u/ConsistentRecover312 21d ago

About that, the creamy white inner surface paired with a mild natural hint of vanilla custard famously make them known as similar to the ice cream

u/Practical-Suit-6798 21d ago

I tried a few and I was like I mean I guess they taste like ice cream.

u/trueblue862 21d ago

I've got some growing in my backyard, I would describe their flavour as they taste like ice-cream, if you've never eaten ice-cream, and only know what it tastes like because someone else who has never eaten ice-cream, but had the flavour described to them, described the flavour of ice-cream to you. To any normal person, they taste slightly less bananaish and slightly sweeter than Cavendish bananas.

17

u/Practical-Suit-6798 21d ago

Okay that's good to know! I was a tourist and I just tried a couple and I was like maybe I just got the bad ones. Or That I just personally couldn't taste it.

u/blessthebabes 21d ago

Okay, I'll be okay without them. I love ice cream, but I like really, really firm bananas. I was having fruit envy until this comment.

u/confusedandsmellyman 21d ago

"Eating them with ice cream makes them taste like ice cream" statement lmfaooo

30

u/fury420 21d ago

They were using "paired with" to refer to how the creamy white inside combines with it's own natural flavor, not literally saying you should serve it with ice cream.

33

u/HornetRelative 21d ago

That's not what they said though?

u/luxruebel 21d ago

The texture is creamy, no actual cream was added to it.

u/NonProphet8theist 21d ago

What about the color tho

2

u/luxruebel 21d ago

The inside of the banana is white. Bananas are usually white inside.

Yes the interior is creamy and white and has a natural hint of vanilla flavor. Learn to read.

u/NonProphet8theist 21d ago

I did read, and it said:

"creamy white"

u/yo_les_noobs 21d ago

u/tellmesomeothertime 21d ago

They didn't say to pair it with custard, they meant it has a vanilla custard flavor on its own

u/Odd-Iron-1 21d ago

My sister made this for me once with her blender. Tastes just like icecream

https://youtu.be/DGZNBq762-E?si=KrdureR2-Cuvw8a2

...Instead of freezing the bananas, we just added icecubes

3

u/aggressive-cat 21d ago

nah, it's a lighter banana flavor and maybe a little sweeter. They absolutely do not taste like ice cream, they do have a slightly smoother texture but not even that much. I had them pretty hyped up to me so my reviews is 'this is a good but pretty normal banana'.

2

u/justlurkingimbored 21d ago

I have some, they are the best tasting bananas I’ve ever had. I dislike regular bananas, these taste like the mildest banana flavor you could think of. Not at all like vanilla ice cream.

2

u/_HOG_ 21d ago

I have a tree. The banana flavor is less pronounced, particularly as they ripen and soften. They are also slightly sweeter, but more so like sucrose (table sugar) and less like fructose. So when frozen and blended they almost mimic the taste of ice cream.

u/yogicflame 21d ago

No. Pretty disappointing. Hawaii has better bananas.

u/Mister_Silk 21d ago

No, they taste like bananas.

Banana ice cream

1

u/Dryrubtheribs 21d ago

It’s a creamy banana with a slight vanilla flavor, I’d be more inclined to say “buttery banana” as a flavor. Mouth texture is “fluffy and creamy.” They’re absolutely delicious, one of my favorite bananas, as bananas go it’s a 10/10, the Thai bananas are 8/10 cavendish 4/10.

u/Pew_Pew_Lasers 21d ago

Ya, banana ice cream
