Reply to comment by KingArfer in TIL that RED bananas exist. They have a sweeter taste, and contain more nutrients like vitamin C, compared to regular yellow ones. by i_hate_you_and_you

This is true for most tropical fruit. If you get it locally it's usually better than it would be if picked early, thrown in a box, and sent halfway around the world and thrown on store shelves.

It's true for most fruit of any kind. The tomatoes you get in store are nowhere near as flavorful as the ones you could grow in your backyard if (A) you had a backyard, and (B) you were willing to put in the effort.
