    A friend was telling me about this over the weekend. Apparently KC is so over the top religious, he made the director bring in his wife and dress her to look like the leading lady during a scene where he had to kiss her because he took his vows so seriously.

    b,121Unlike apple and orange growers, banana importers sell only a single variety of their fruit, the Cavendish. There are more than 1,000 varieties of bananas ??? most of them in Africa and Asia ??? but except for an occasional exotic, the Cavendish is the only banana we see in our markets. It is the only kind that is shipped and eaten everywhere from Beijing to Berlin, Moscow to Minneapolis.
    b,121
    b,121By sticking to this single variety, the banana industry ensures that all the bananas in a shipment ripen at the same rate, creating huge economies of scale. The Cavendish is the fruit equivalent of a fast-food hamburger: efficient to produce, uniform in quality and universally affordable.
    b,121
    b,121But there???s a difference between a banana and a Big Mac: The banana is a living organism. It can get sick, and since bananas all come from the same gene pool, a virulent enough malady could wipe out the world???s commercial banana crop in a matter of years.
    b,121
    b,121This has happened before. Our great-grandparents grew up eating not the Cavendish but the Gros Michel banana, a variety that everyone agreed was tastier. But starting in the early 1900s, banana plantations were invaded by a fungus called Panama disease and vanished one by one. Forest would be cleared for new banana fields, and healthy fruit would grow there for a while, but eventually succumb.
    b,121
    b,121By 1960, the Gros Michel was essentially extinct and the banana industry nearly bankrupt. It was saved at the last minute by the Cavendish, a Chinese variety that had been considered something close to junk: inferior in taste, easy to bruise (and therefore hard to ship) and too small to appeal to consumers. But it did resist the blight.

    I could go for a banana that looks like that weird guava banana. Being that banana plants are weeds that grow incredibly fast though, any decimation to banana crops would probably barely be felt at the consumer level, no?b,121b,121b/w After trying organics bananas I now refuse to eat conventional ones because the difference in taste is drastic in favor of the organic.
