Bananas are one of the most consumed fruits in the world, if not the most.
They are popular in tropical countries as well as in Europe and the USA. Which
is understandable, because it is such a convenient fruit: easy to peel, no
pits, no problems, no chewing needed (almost). Bananas contain a lot of
potassium.
Bananas grow on something that looks like a tree, but is not; after producing
the banana, the plant will die and disappear entirely, and a new plant will
emerge, producing bananas again.
