Yeah maybe the description wasn't the best?

Like, my apple bananas. They taste "sharper", and have a more authentic banana flavor, and are less cloying. And the texture is more firm, even when ripe/ overripe. Even when ripe they have structure, they aren't mush.

Cavendish is disgusting to me. Like I can't even eat one. Its literally gross. But I can eat like 3-5 apple bananas in one sitting.

    Gros michel is a cultivar, Cavendish is a cultivar, Tahitian blues a cultivar, and "apple banana" is cultivar, but also an often used name for "unnamed cultivar".

    The difference is as big as the difference between a Fuji apple and a granny smith. They're practically different fruit.
