Description[edit | edit source]

The Goldfinger Banana is characterized by its elongated shape and vibrant yellow color. It is slightly larger than the average banana, with a length of about 7 to 8 inches. The skin of the Goldfinger Banana is thin and easy to peel, revealing a firm and creamy flesh inside.

The bananas are typically harvested when they are fully ripe, ensuring maximum flavor and quality.
