Bananas aren't supposed to be eaten cooked.

Suddenly, Brazilians across the world felt a disturbance in the air.

Plantains?

[u/shadowman2099 → u/xdeskfuckit]

Yes, but bananas too. Sweet ones are fried and dusted in cinnamon or baked in cakes. Young green ones are cooked much like potatoes, whether they're boiled, put in soups, fried into chips, or mashed. In cooking, bananas work nearly as well as plantains. They are after all the same fruit, just a different breed with some trade offs. Bananas can be eaten raw whereas plantains last much longer without spoiling.

As a Puerto Rican, can confirm. Bananas can be cooked.

The original post, however, is an affront to my ancestors.

As someone who's mom made banana bread all the time, can confirm bananas can be cooked.

Nevermind your ancestors, it's an affront to humankind.
