Exotic varieties serve as a delicious and interesting addition to any meal.

• Kids love the exotics for their small size and different appearance.
  
• The smaller size of these varieties make them perfect for singleservings. Pack one in your bag for a snack or an energy boost during your workday or after your workout.
  
• Exotic bananas have the same amount of essential elements, vitamins and minerals as regular bananas.

Baby Banana

Baby bananas are just that, a smaller version of the regular banana. They're sweetest when spotting is visible on the peel. They're also referred as finger bananas because they are about the size of a finger.

Baby bananas can be used the same way as regular bananas.

Manzanos

Perhaps the most exotic banana of them all, this small thick fruit has a flavor between an apple and a banana. Manzanos take longer to ripen than most other bananas, and should not be eaten until fully ripe, when the skin is spotted black and splitting, to better enjoy unique flavor. Manzanos make an excellent addition to salads and desserts.

Red Banana

The red banana is known and loved in many parts of the world for its beautiful coloration and delicious flavor. Its flesh is creamy-white with a hue of light pink or pale orange. A red banana is ready to eat when its skin turns reddish-brown, almost purple.

Red bananas provide an excellent flavor for baking. Thanks to their color, they are a great way to give party dishes a dash of flair.
