Learn more about Costa Rica before #nostrica

Today I present you our beloved perfect fruit "El banano".

In 2015, Costa Rica grew and supplied one out of every 10 bananas consumed globally and ranks as the world’s third largest banana exporter.

The banana industry is vital to the rural Costa Rican community and accounts for over 100,000 jobs. With so much at stake, it’s no wonder that scientists are constantly looking for ways to help farmers protect their bananas to keep up with global demand and sustain their livelihoods.

In the picture above the colorful and delicious banana, below is the commercial one.

Gotta try them all 🍌... Challenge for #[0] 😆 and #[1]

Thanks! I like the short bananas. What are those called?

Those are the tastier! They are called "bananitos" or "manita pequeña"

🤤

I’ve never seen a pink banana before 👀

Heard there are over 200 kinds of bananas?

True

They are sweet and light. Recommended

There should be some kind of banana tasting event (similar to wine). I would go.
