After that we wait for like 2 to 3 weeks and there we have it nice riped bananas. The only thing that is hard to get are vanilla’s they take time and care to grow them. My grandpa owns a vanilla plantation and they export them to overseas like New Zealand. In Tonga there is a season for every fruit. We have watermelon season which we pretty much get more melons that the usual. There is pineapple season, mango season. Coconuts nah we get those every day.

Fun fact about the Gros Michel variety of banana is that you can actually still taste it even though it doesn't exist anymore; artificial banana flavoring was designed to imitate the taste of gros Michel before they went extinct, that's why banana flavored candy tastes nothing like any banana we know because we are in fact tasting and smelling gros Michel bananas or at the very least something that resembles them closely.

Should try picking bananas, it's hard work, cutting and humping bananas on your shoulder then walking it over to a trailer to put down all day long, bunches weighing maybe 40kg average and going up to 70kg+.

There are a lot of variety of bananas. Those small banana in your backyard is probably not the common variety you see on supermarkets which is cavendish.
