Wow, that’s incredible! Reminds me of how pineapples are; a huge cluster of berries which are fused together.
Interesting...thx..
Well ya, very literally similar as bananas are berries and these are fairly fused. 🤣
PINEAPPLE ARE WHAT???!???
@S Mavi and raspberries
@S Mavi actually the strawberry itself is the inflated flower stem. The little "seeds" are the fruits. So not really fused together, but still on the same strawberry
Convenient that they ripen from the outside in rather than the other way around. :)
You could have one per day and not worry about them going bad!
Good point! That's basically what i did too, though after a few days the center caught up with the rest
@@WeirdExplorer how long have you been vegan for?
@@joeblowjo I think he has said that he's been vegetarian for the majority of his life. I could be wrong though.
I imagine it's due to surface area allowing for less release of ethylene.
What a beautiful baseball glove
In the Philippines, there's an urban legend that says, if you eat a pair of bananas that got stuck together, your children would be a twin.
Bruh that banana saw what the pineapple did and was like "ooo lemme try that!"
let’s hope watermelons don’t see what’s going on
Please try a savory (ish) banana. It's called "saba". In the Philippines, we have to cook it with sugar so it tastes like, well, banana-ey. We also add it to savory soups to give a subtle sweetness. It has a super hard skin and you have to cut it with a knife.
"Banana-ey"! I love that! In my mind, I'm pronouncing it like you would say "kawaii".
@@TheCatAteMyShoe That's how I say it in my mind too! It's the only way XD
Oh wow, that sounds like a very interesting curry ingredient or similar.
@@spicefreak4726 what's the dish called? It could be the same
@Anelle Savares I've had sweet kashmiri banana and creamy Keralan plantain dishes before but I wasn't thinking of either when I posted that. Just of how savoury banana could fit into a dish with, say, coconut milk and cinnamon leaves.
This banana is grown here in the Philippines although rarely. Its local name is "inabaniko" which translates to "fan-like."
That thumbnail is... Unsettling.
If you had asked me before the video what they looked like based on the thumbnail, I would have been legit flummoxed
Edit- it kinda skirts trypophobia-inducing, doesn't it?
Count Meowt I can see it, doesn’t really trigger it for me, but I’ve mostly gotten over trypophobia over the years.
The shirt tho: "I eat your skin"
i am dead from laughter
Looks like a Baseballglove to my Grandson! Lol!😂 Thanks for the Video. Keep up the great Work!👍
That's a great description! thanks
I don't understand why we have 10 variety of apples in every grocery store, but only 1 or 2 variety of bananas.
apples are easy to transport. Most bananas are not
The banana reviews just keep coming.
there's one more coming in a couple weeks :)
A Trypophobia nightmare
He’s going bananas
Dip it in batter and deep fry it. Tasty snack.
Pazham Pori!!
talking about freaky banana, there's one freaky banana that native to Papua island in Indonesia, it's a giant banana, Musa Ingens. The tree can grow up to 25 meter high and have 2 meter diameter at the bottom. The fruit itself can grow more than 20 cm long. They can harvest up to 60 kg of banana from 1 tree. Unfortunately, it's quite hard to find outside Papua.
The fruit is 15cm long not over 20 cm not that freaking enormous and it's seedy but tastes good, not inedible
The ripeness thing is a plus. You could have more days to eat them as you worked from outer edges.
yep exactly
Can't help but keep seeing it as a form of banana deformity...
The best way to tell if a banana, or almost any fruit, is ripe, is by smell. A ripe banana should have a rich, mellow, sweet smell, not the slightly acrid, green smell of an unripe banana.
It’s not wrong to say you can judge by softness, except that some banana varieties are softer than others when ripe. So it takes experience with the particular variety. If you have one of the firm varieties, it will never get as soft (before it rots) as one of the softer varieties.
good point.
I always feel like such a weirdo when I'm smelling bananas. Glad I'm not the only one
let me just smell the color green
@@carlosandleon it can be done with certain drugs...
I love the fact we can be so passionate by something like fruit, its juste so humble and calm. The opposite would be something like sex and politics...
Mmmm banana custard? Oh man, my boyfriend would LOVE to have these!
pudding.. good. custard... good. bananas.. good. 😯 i want pudding custardy bananas! i really think i might have to try these now.
Joey is that you?😂
You are the most oddly interesting man. I just love watching you interact with the fruit.
So cool they are almost grafted together over time of growing. Also my eyes lit up when you said Miami fruit! I bought some cacao pods from them. Small world!
There are so many kinds of banana. Its amazing! I wonder how seeded banana tastes...
I reviewed that one a few months ago in my India videos :)
Well if all else fails and you accidentally peel an adjoining banana, chop it up and freeze it for smoothies/shakes! =)
EDIT: OH! My exotic fruit order is due to arrive tomorrow and I have the Daca/red banana to try! I also have two dried varieties to try, one is "apple banana" and the other I can't remember ^-^'
Great idea, these would be good for smoothies too
Could you review a bunch of random common fruit, and versions of those fruit that you think would be a better replacement?
I had this idea for a while and wanted to tell you :)
So it's a fruit consisting of several smaller fruits stuck together to form a larger fruit, like the ananas/pineappple but with bananas?
I'll call it a banananas
I really appreciate your videos and your presentation skills. Have for a long time. Was excited to see this review since I know your opinion on cavendishes so well : P This type of banana sounds lovely, let the hunt begin; thank you for all the work you do in opening the world up to new and tasty experiences through entertaining education complete with laughter and temptations to explore.
That is so kind of you to say, thanks!
Loving these banana videos. I’ve been going out of my way to try all the varieties available at my grocery store.
Weird Explorer: “You got to separate these carefully, one by one, so you don’t rip the peel on the next banana and end up having to eat more than on…”
Me: “Time for banana bread and banana nut muffins!”
I've had some of those tiny bananas right off a tree I was trimming in florida. Just some random cross breed that tasted like clover flowers and tea. Next one I had? Like smooth dirt. THey vary SO SO much lol.
*Bananas, talking to Nature before existing:* ... and I want a *flamethrower* , and *fangs* an-
*Nature, pinching the bridge of her nose in suppressed rage:* *FFS BANANAS* for the *last time* you get to be *yellow* and *slightly curved* and THAT'S IT. *NOTHING ELSE, OK?* I don't need you going all exotic looking and starting another *starfruit scandal* and upstaging all the other fruit.
*Bananas, muttering under his breath:* hmpf
The apple banana is nice to
I had a plant in my garden in mexico, unfortunately i wasn't there when they were ready
He tried that one in his ‘Strange Bananas’ episode
Haha. I like how honest he is about the bell. That's where we click to get instant automated notification whenever you post something new! =D
Prayer Hands might be my new favorite fruit, the way you described it. Also I mentioned it in the comments of another video months ago, but the Louisiana Strawberry Fest in April 12-14
I think if I remember people solve the peel problem by just eating them with a bunch of other people. Just expect to eat the whole thing at once.
I live in NC by the outer banks and worked on a house for a woman who grew some of these. No fruits while I was there but the flowers had a nectar that tasted exactly like banana laffy taffy
Miami fruit and spice park is a really cool experience right around the corner from me
Okay but it looks more like a baseball mit than praying hands 😅
The sound of him separating the bananas at 2:55 was very satisfying. Like banana ASMR.
I considered making a 2 hour video of pulling bananas apart and tapping on them.
That's funny! Very good!!
I definitely caught that moment as well! Quite a satisfying sound lol
oh that was so satisfying to watch you peel it :)
Looks so delish!!
"Then I would have to eat a dozen bananas" ... Freelie has entered the chat ^^
Ooo, makes me wonder how praying hands banana bread would come out...
I made banana bread with several of the different varieties they sent me and it was great. So many subtle flavors
@@WeirdExplorer Ooooh. That sounds awesome indeed.
In indonesia they call it "kepok" banana
If you get the unripe you have to steam it
Or if you wanna get more sweety taste you can dry it like raisin
But you have to cut the banana into 2 part
And then dry it using sun it takes about 3 days (5 days to gain more sweetines)
And fry it
Feel the sensation 😁
Sweets like a dates fruit
Glad this was recommended to me
In Java different banana for different purposes. This one is for boiled banana with the skin. Whatever the food is always boiled with the skin. The BLUE JAVA banana on your other video are very good for fried banana.
I love the banana videos. 🍌
For sure my favorite. 👍
Miami fruit is awesome. 🌞
This is my favorite fruit based youtube channel
That's how all the bananas we eat grow. Those are just prematurely harvested..
nope, its the variety.
This channel makes my local grocery store so disappointing..
Lol its Handbannana. " tonight...you"
I think you just made me have a renewed interest in bananas again.
It looks like a baseball glove that I had, when I was a kid.
baseball glove! that's a great description for it
You got your... LEFT hand.
You got you... RIGHT hand.
Thank you for your information.
My pleasure
I was thinking if you accidentally rip the peel, you can just use a spoon to scoop the next banana out. That way you're only eating 2 instead of the whole "hand" in one sitting.
It's like the pineapple of bananas 😮
The ones towards the middle are probably stiffer because of slower ripening from not having as much exposure to oxygen
I'd probably freeze them for smoothies to help them last longer
Looked like a catchers mit. I had these the other day. I got mine from my local supermarket in a small town in texas. My daughter loves them. Your shirt is freaking awesome btw.
I have some burro bananas that are just starting to ripen, but not quite there. Cant wait to try them.
Those are good! save a couple green ones to cook like plantains.
@@WeirdExplorer will do. Thanks.
Really am enjoying your channel and your content.💕
You could also steam the praying banana until it cook with brown color.
Plantains can be eaten raw if fully ripened and green bananas can be cooked. I believe in Jamaica they cook green banana. I'm from Colombia and we cook both ripe and green plantains but you can eat them raw when ripe if you don't cook the green ones it's like eating raw potato not good for you.
Yes! they are all bananas, all can be cooked and all can be eaten raw but they ripen at different times. I have a raw plantain review on here somewhere
There is a fruit and spise park in Miami?!😍🤤
@6:41 "I love bananas because theirs so much VERY ASIAN" ...yep I like very asain bananas too
Checked out the website,
looks like they only ship to the USA.,.
This is..I guess I have a new channel to explore. I wasn’t expecting to be watching a fruit channel of all things but thanks for the content mate, you present the fruits well.
Love bananas ! They're my favorite fruit !
Praying Hands Banana = Or what i call BEARCLAWS RAWR!!!!!!!!!
That is awesome. I have never seen one up close. These look awesome but like that one person said when you cut it it looks like pineapple makes me think of a pineapple the way of pineapple looks. They’re beautiful I’m sure they’re delicious.😋😋😋❤️
your shirt say you eat my skin and drink my blood AND you're eating a banana.
very healthy diet, I must say.
:P
The baseball mitt banana
I'd call it a catcher's mitt banana
that would be some great branding
Used to eat a full bunch of bananas a day as a kid, i got banana rash a lot lmao
Not too surprising considering bananas are berries. Each banana is like one bead of a raspberry
MY HANDS ARE BANANAS! - Some viral song from 2006
For some reason, the actual appearance of the clump is unsettling
VERY... The way these bananas look make me so uncomfortable that it's hard for me not to look away. I don't get why. I know it's not rational, there's no reason why they should repulse me this way, But they do 🤷 especially the picture of the sliced piece from the woman. Just Ugh!
Looks like a catcher's mitt. Play ball!
i wonder if these bananas are an intermediate stage of evolution to become a segmented fruit (like an orange or something)
My wife glanced over at my screen and said, "hlly shit it's a soft ball glove banana"
Looks tasty 😋 Now I want some baby bananas. Not sure what those are called but you can find them at Mexican grocery stores.
From where I am from, it a saying that if you eat joint bananas, you will have multiple children (twins, triplets etc.)
in my country we called it กล้วยเทพพนม but I think it might native to archipelago of southeast asia but it also fine in many many part of Thailand too
we usually cook the same way as the Silver Bluggoe or with out cooking.
nice shirt
Those weren’t ready to eat yet. Maybe a couple days later they’d be ideal. You don’t want them with green pedicels unless you’re cooking them.
this is just
bananas.
amen.
Make banana bread with all of the bananas!
I think it's good for cooking
Try boiling it with water
I know similar banana that looks like that but not stick together
In Malaysia we sometimes get it but not common .. difficult to sell .. the grower himself will make fried bananas or make sweet dessert .. not eaten raw fresh ... matsu
Oooohhh I want a juicy banana YUM!
Fry these and put them in yogurt, really good.
Try the hala fruit next
like if you agree
I found it in the Seychelles :) video coming in a few months
there are alot more places than Florida and Cali that grow nice b-nans...i live in SC an my neighbor grew em my whole life in her yard
I seriously should grow a collection of different bananas...
Did you start?
your shirt - It says, "I eat your skin" lol
Happy Valentine’s!
There is a kind of pineapple in the Caribbean that is palmiform(?). Have you ever encountered a handshaped pineapple type fruit?
Oooh, yay, more atemoya incoming!
Have you ever had a fire baked plantain? They taste like diabetes. Just like yellow pitaya.
they are so delicious.
Diabetes lol
Sweet? I thought plantains were like banana potatoes. Effectively like potatoes but shaped like bananas. I didn't know you could cook sweetness into them.
@@Bubu567 I mean, they're sweet when they're ripe like any fruit, you just don't eat them as is. You cut them into slices, not vertically but horizontally at an angle, and then fry them so you make fried plantains. In spanish you can also call them amarillos which basically translates to yellows. They're also used to make other foods. They're very soft and sweet when done right.
My dad’s dad used to somehow grow these really tiny cute bananas.
it kind of reminds me of the way a pineapple grows!
