^^^^^^^^
I walk to the La Jolla Whole Foods store on Nobel Drive most mornings. I haven’t seen any manzano bananas there recently. They do have the “baby bananas” (Dole brand) that are about the same size as manzano bananas, but I don’t think that they’re the real deal. I’ll ask a worker and report his reply.

Ah. I just found this on the web:

“Similar to the common yellow Cavendish banana, the Manzano is smaller and sweeter, with a hint of crunchy apple-strawberry flavor. Not to be confused with the Baby Banana, the pale-gold Manzano actually tastes best when its skin is covered with black spots or has turned completely black. …”

Serious about crackers.

Thanks very much, Pipe Smoker!

I tried finding a nursery selling the Manzano banana trees locally; so far no luck. I guess you can order them online.

Those would be great for morning pill taking.

The bigger nanners are too many calories for just pill taking.

Just to get a little something in before you take your pills
