A member asked:
If allergic to bananas, can i eat plantains?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Plantain = Banana: Plantains are a member of the banana family. They are a starchy, low in sugar variety that is cooked before serving as it is unsuitable raw. If allergic to one, you are highly likely, though not guaranteed, to be allergic to the other.
