Akschwelally this is on the Wikipedia list of common misconceptions

Banana-flavored candy was not intended to mimic the taste of a formerly popular variety of banana. It tastes different from bananas because it is mainly flavored with only one of the many flavor compounds a banana has, isoamyl acetate, that is also found in a wide variety of fruits and fermented beverages.

I couldn't find the banana part on the link you sent (on mobile so hard to search) but if it's true I stand corrected :) I'll check the link when I get to a computer and if needed I'll edit my misinformation post

It's the last bullet under the Arts and Culture : Food and Cooking subsection.
