I read this piece of news on The Scientist that bananas around the world are facing a disease that could threaten to wipe out the plant. Seems like there is this Panama disease which will wilt the banana plant. It seems the disease has already wiped out an early commercial banana species known as Gros Michel. If the farmers and their respective governments are not careful, the disease would strike the rest of the banana species.
Wah... then no more bananas next time? I would miss my goreng pisang and banana split... actually I'm not a big fan of bananas, but just thought it interesting when the article said the bananas we are eating are different from those our forefathers eat. Hmm was walking pass Bugis and took a pic of the goreng pisang (70cents each).
