Welcome to Food Crimes! This community is here to collect all and any post about cursed food and generally unusual consumables.
Right now, here’s the rules:
- Posts must include an image or video containing food or drink.
- It must be unusual or cursed in some way. a. For example, something like Doritos Milk would be unusual, but normal milk would not.
- No AI posts whatsoever, and any images that were altered (Ex: Photoshop, Gimp) need to be tagged.
How to tag:
To tag your posts, please prepend or append the tag name inside square brackets. For example,[OC] Foo bar baz or foo bar baz [Meta] would be acceptable. Multiple tags will require separate pairs of brackets, like so: [Edited][OC] foo bar baz
Here are the current tags:
- Edited - The image was manipulated with editing software.
- OC - You made this cursed food yourself!
- Meta - Relating to the community itself.

(BTW, I’m looking for someone to help mod here! I myself would not be enough if this community goes beyond a few posts a day.)

Thos appear to be Plantains, not the typical yellow cavendish you buy.
Plantains are not sweet, but starchy like a potato, which means this is likely delicious.
I don’t know how you think you can tell what they are by size.
The recipe merely states “6 medium bananas.” It’s American, circa 1973. 100% chance it means Cavendish.
I didn't see a link to the recipe so I did not have the context you do.
That context would have changed my response.
Plantains? KRAMER!
They look like Cavendish to me. Or at least, I remember plantains having sharper angles and being thicker.
Maybe you have a point there. Hard to tell. They would be much better as plantains.
