Red bananas - more sweeter than yellow bananas

 Red bananas, also known as Red Dacca bananas are a variety of banana with reddish-purple skin.The first bananas to appear on the market in Toronto (in the 1870s and 1880s) were red bananas .They are smaller and plumper than the common Cavendish banana. When ripe, raw red bananas have a flesh that is cream to light pink in color. They are also softer and sweeter than the yellow Cavendish varieties, with a slight raspberry flavor. Many red bananas are imported from producers in Asia and South America. They are a favourite in Central America but are sold throughout the world.The redder the fruit, the more carotene and the higher the vitamin C level. As with yellow bananas, red bananas will ripen in a few days at room temperature and are best stored outside refrigeration.
