We are all creatures of habits, often based on what we are taught in our culture and family. In the Western world, we are led to believe that any visible imperfections on the fruits render them not a top pick or perhaps even inedible. 

We learn to eat only the most perfect-looking ripe produce with a bright and vibrant exterior to ensure the most delightful flavor. We are also a society that believes texture is as important as taste. 

When you go to the grocery store looking for bananas, you will often see various shades of green to yellow, depending on where they are in the ripening process. It is most common to search for bananas with a bright yellow exterior that is slightly soft to the touch because this is considered the perfect stage to consume them. 

Finding the ideal banana is like finding the perfect avocado. If it is too ripe, it becomes mushy and undesirable to use. 

Suggested Use: Replace cooking flour with equal parts organic green banana powder or add 1-2 tablespoons to yogurt or your favorite smoothie for a superfood boost.
