Saw this in the Matunga market in Mumbai and thought it might warm Wuap's cockles. This is a pile of edible parts from a banana tree. Leaves, stems, blossoms and the fruit itself. All this stuff was selling briskly that day.PLesa excuse the tpyos.

From Fivethirtyeight:
$7 billion
Fun fact: The primary type of banana consumed by humans was eradicated from Earth in the 1950s because of a blight. The type of bananas that people eat today — Cavendish bananas — are a totally different type than the Gros Michel bananas that people noshed down in the 1940s. The issue is that all our eggs are once again in the same botanical basket, and if another banana plague were to sweep the world — like, say, the new banana fungus that has spread to Australia from Africa and Asia — we’d be reduced to plantains or some other alternative. The international banana market is worth more than $7 billion. [Bloomberg]"Be a philosopher. A man can compromise to gain a point.

Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

I saw this in a convenience store this summer and thought of wuap.
In Icelandic, apparently the word for cake is kaka.
Seems disrespectful to the banana.
