Talk:Red banana

This article has an inherent contradiction regarding when a red bananas are ripe. The top section says "When ripe, raw red bananas have a flesh that is cream to light pink in color" while the Description section says "Red bananas should have a deep red or maroon rind when ripe."

It's not a contradiction. "Flesh" is the inside of the banana; "rind" is the outside. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 08:52, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

On the List of banana cultivars page, under the heading "AAA Group", "Red Dacca" or Red Banana is listed not indented with the Cavendish Subgroup, listed instead as a separate cultivar. In addition, on the Cavendish banana page, there is no mention anywhere of the red banana being a part of this subgroup. However on this Red banana page, it mentions twice that it is part of the Cavendish group. Is this a misnomer? Unless I am mistaken, shouldn't it be in its own Red subgroup and not in the Cavendish subgroup? Or is it that the Cavendish cultivars are so popular that the AAA group is also synonymously (mistakenly) called the Cavendish group (even though there are several non Cavendish cultivars also in the AAA group)? --64.30.64.130 (talk) 04:17, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

Diseases

The link implies that Red Bananas are vulnerable to Panama Disease. If so, that is very important information that should be in the article. For instance, I came here wondering if Red Bananas could replace the Cavendish as the Cavendish replaced Gros Michel. I'm guessing not, but it should be stated up front. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.202.33.17 (talk) 04:14, 6 July 2018 (UTC)
