Sometimes referred to as the PERFECT FRUIT, it is no secret that BANANAS are considered a delicious and healthy snack alternative, along with being a terrific addition to cereal in the morning, baked in muffins or as a moist dessert bread. Bananas are eaten by athletes looking to avoid cramping, and are a sure fire remedy for a headache.
The Banana plant is not a tree but actually the world's largest herb, and originates from Malaysia. It's name stems from the Arabic word banan, which means finger. Portuguese sailors are responsible for the proliferation of the WORLD'S MOST POPULAR FRUIT, as they brought it to the Caribbean and then eventually to the America's.
