Cab anyone attest to how these things taste? And is it possible to get one outside of Hawaii?
Yeaaaah that's $177 for a banana, I'm good
fwiw it does seem to be for a box of 7-10 lbs, but still
Tbf, you're buying an 8-10 pound box of them, which, according to the images, is more than likely at least around a dozen of them.
Still expensive, but it's somewhere in the ballpark of $10-20 per banana rather than a single $177 banana.
Interesting that the flavor profile says nothing about the flavor, only the texture.
Here's a video of a family tasting the banana and describing the flavor.
tl;dw: The flavor is similar to Cavendish. One person thought it was sweeter and had "more banana" flavor. One person didn't feel that was the case. The texture was described as "thick and chewy," and not as "fluffy" as the Cavendish. Overall they liked it.
