It is sad that while there are so many interesting banana varieties all around the world, only two of them ship for crap. In addition to cool-sounding fruity varieties, one variety is so starchy it used to be the base starch the diet of local people instead of a grain, how neat is that?
Forget banana varieties, you’re missing so many different fruits that aren’t imported just because it doesn’t travel well.
I moved to Taiwan and found out there is a completely different avocado that is creamer. There is pineapple that is 10 times sweeter and doesn’t fuck up your tongue after a few pieces. You can even eat the core.
Mango season just started and there are 2 different kinds. One is (extremely)sweet and the other is sweet and sour.

500 kinds of mangos. 2000 kinds of apples…
There are also many awsome natural species, like the short one with pink fruits that peel themselves when ripe (Musa velutina): https://www.google.com/search?q=musa+velutina&client=firefox-b-m&sca_esv=0d9b9ff4180b1131&sca_upv=1&channel=ts&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiO77mWg9OFAxV0zQIHHZrRC0YQ_AUIBigB&biw=342&bih=642#
