The love for Planitains

The Honduran diet is greatly composed of the plantain fruit. It is eaten with everything from fried chiken to milk or eatem simply by itself. What is it about this food that Hondurans love? Well they love its great sweet taste and its softness. My family is from Honduras and therefore they do enjoy eating plantains quite a bit. Not only does the plantain resemble the banana but is a very flexible food to cook with it. This food is a very important part of the Honduran diet. But like my fellow colleague truffels  has reported, plantains, part of the banana family could go instinct. Not only would this effect the Honduran culture but animals that eat it and other people in the world that enjoy it. Action must be  taken now to secure that this fruit is available for future generations to come.
