Banarama

I'm loving these Hawaiian apple bananas. They are a stubby little banana with a thick peel. They have a distinct tart apple taste when they are young (hence the name), and as they ripen they become very sweet, creamy and so tasty. The apple bananas in this photo are not quite ripe enough to eat. I'll need to wait a day or two until the peel browns a bit more. Besides being high in potassium, I read that this variety of banana is much higher in vitamin C & A than common bananas. Needless to say, I'll be eating lots of these while I'm in Maui.
