If you're latino, you have eaten plantains before. They're almost in every dish in every spanish restaurant I've been to. I'm part Mexican, I've been to many Spanish restaurants (authentic ones, not some Abuelo's/Don Pablo's Tex-Mex rip-off), and I've NEVER eaten a plantain. Or seen one at said establishments. Not to say you're wrong, but my experiences run entirely counter to that. Jed Shaffer ~Now, if you'd said "chilis", that might be different. |

Limes. They're second to lemons in overall popularity but I much prefer them.

Plantains because they taste the least like their more popular cousins. I had plantains for the first time in September at a Jamaican restaurant and I still don't know if I like them or not.

Limes would have to be the most jealous... I think Plantains are just like the Val Venis' of the world: they just come in and do their job. And then go home. They will never main event, and one cares if they show up or not. But they are there.
As an aside, I tried to fry some the other night, and they came out hard. BOO!

I've always felt sorry for the orange. It got a raw deal. It got it's name simply because it was orange. What a boring name. If it had been yellow, I've always maintained it could have gotten an awesome name, like spherical banana.
