Intro: Bananas are tasty, really easy to eat, and they give us a quick energy boost as they have a lot of carbs in them. The bananas most people think about when someone mentions that word are the soft yellow variety, but you can actually get starchier versions which are harder, and even ones that are purple or red when they are ripe. The plants that bananas grow on (they aren’t trees even though they seem big enough to be) are native to Southeast Asia and they are grown in 107 countries now, primarily so we can eat the fruit.
