Banana,India

バナナは世界中至る所で売られている。近所のスーパーでも￥100で売られている事もある。
だけど、バナナの種類は気を付けてみると本当に多様で、甘かったり、赤かったり、太かったり、尖ってたり、小さかったり。その他色々・・・・・・・。
でも、どれも心強い携帯食品には変わりなく、鞄の中でフニャフニャになりながら出番を待っている。
Love!Banana!!

There are many memories related to bananas since I grew up listening to my father’s story. He said, bananas sold on Asian streets are the real bananas and ones that I buy at Japanese supermarkets are so bad that they are supposed to be eaten by live stocks. He meant that imported bananas are tasteless because they are taken while very green and young. So, I vivdly remember that I dreamed of eating “real bananas” when I became old enough to travel tropical Asia. Twenty some years later, my dream came true. My father was right. Real bananas are sold on Asian streets.
