Bananas are one of the most popular foods in the world. They provide fiber, potassium and vitamin C. They may also be the only plant whose all parts can be used, such as the stem, the flower, the vegetable and the fruit.
A raw banana refers to an unripe or green banana that has not yet reached its full maturity. It is firmer and less sweet compared to a ripe banana. Raw bananas are commonly used in cooking and can be boiled, fried, or baked to make various dishes.
