August 20: Have A Delicious Banana on National Bananas Day!
Here at Dishfolio, we love bananas all year round, so Banana Lover's Day is a great opportunity to try something new with bananas. This fruit was first grown in Papua New Guinea, and it is thought that bananas were grown there as early as 8,000 BC.
In the 21st century, lots of healthy, easy meals can be prepared using bananas, and even desserts can take advantage of the natural sweetness and stickiness of this fruit. It is thought that 80 million tons of bananas are produced every single year, and these are shipped all over the world.
Did you know that some species of bananas can be bright red when ripe, and others can be purple? Because of the vivid colors of bananas and the exotic climates in which they grow, they have been captured by some of the best food photographers in the world.
