The current crisis in banana production (viral attack) might have an up side. The banana we know here in North America is the Cavendish, which among banana connoisseurs is generally considered one of the worst types of banana. Did you know that there are over 1000 types of banana in the world? Apparently, the best ones come from Congo and the Philippines. When I was a kid, there were only two types of apple in grocery stores -- red and green. Now every grocery has a dozen or more varieties. Perhaps something similar could happen to bananas. -- Arthur
