It almost seems too hard to believe, but there is a banana that can be eaten with peel.

Peel is a cover on a banana. Most people would never think of eating the peel of a banana. However, banana farmers in Japan have created a special technique for growing bananas with a peel we can eat. Farmers in Okayama, in the west of Japan, keep their banana trees at a freezing cold temperature of -60° Celsius. The farmers then replant the trees in 27° Celsius. The huge change in temperature makes the tree suddenly grow too quickly for the peel to become hard. This makes the skin thin, soft and sweet enough to eat. The new variety of banana is called the “ Mongee”. Farmers are now selling it in small bunches of 10 bananas. They are not cheap. The farmers have not grown a lot of Mongee bananas, so the price is high. They want to grow more so they can sell them all over the world. This means the price will come down.
