    The very thought of old bananas packed in sugary syrup makes me want to throw up in my mouth 🤢

      Looks like a different banana than the one we’re used to. It might be good. A lot aren’t as sweet as the Cavendish.

    Today I learned that people do canning at home without a proper pressure cooker

      People have been doing hot water bath canning at home for well over a century. It works great for acidic foods like tomatoes or pickled vegetables. It’s completely safe if you follow the USDA Guide to Home Canning.

    Those are not the typical cavendish-type bananas though. Those are the bluggoe (I had to look it up) or similar type of varieties that are used for cooking in Asian cuisine and desserts. When not canned, they are usually boiled when ripe and are a great sweet dessert. This canned version just makes it even sweeter with syrup.

    I don’t like bananas at the best of times, so this is just off the scale awful
