Chemadech e mark #466

Open johnbent opened 9 months ago

johnbent commented 9 months ago

"Chemadech e mark is one of the more recently imported bananas. It does not turn yellow when it is ripe, but remains green, hence the name. Chemadech refers to something still green or not yet ripe, and mark means ripe or cooked. Thus, the entire name means that the banana is green but ripe."
