Red banana

Colombia
June 5, 2020 9:13pm CST
As I walked in the neighborhood this afternoon, I found a banana tree with beautiful banana fruits. Their color is red. I wonder if they are edible or not. Have you ever seen this kind of banana? Or maybe you have tried it?

I think it is edible. I had tried to eat a red banana before. It is not common to see them in my country.

@Miss_Leafy It tastes like banana. However, it has hard seeds.

Yes Red banana is indeed edible although very rare to find one.

It is very rare. That's why I think many people don't know if the red banana is edible or not.

@jayanth_77 They must taste more delicious than the ordinary varieties too.

I haven't seen red bananas before, but I think they are edible. Otherwise it will be dangerous to plant it there since people can eat it by a mistake. I am curious to its taste.

That's reasonable. Maybe they are edible, but I'm afraid to give it a try
