Trust me, it was just unripe. I had the same experience. Wait until they are soft and easy to peel.

I tried a red banana with my mother the other day. At first, we were very enthusiastic about tasting this odd fruit.We had a lot of trouble with peeling the banana, in order to get to it we had to use a large cutting knife. Although, as soon as the red banana touched my lips, a very dry starchy flavor seemed to conqor my entire mouth. More dramatic then nessesary, my mother and I both started spitting and making revolting noises together. I’m not so sure this banana was unripe, but who could actully enjoy the red banana?!?!

I’ve never seen a tea farm, so it’s interesting to get an idea of how it’s grown. Looks like a great day.

Man… there is nothing like hot pot in Taiwan! I guess I’m sheltered, I had never seen an actual baby corn served like that.
