It's said that the 'banana' flavour you taste when drinking, say, fake banana milkshake or banana candy s actually the taste of the original banana that used to be worldwide, the Gros Michel, which is why banana flavour never tastes like actual banana =D So yeah I hope we don't have to change to another species too, this one is clearly nicer than the Gross Michel
When I was younger banana flavoring was always my favorite. I never new that connection. I'd live to get some vintage Michel bananas... Maybe initiate a revival!
