What it is

The organic banana is a variety of banana grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. Bananas are tropical fruits that grow in bunches on large herbaceous flowering plants. They are typically peeled and eaten fresh, or used in cooking and baking.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use organic bananas for their natural sweetness and creamy texture. They are commonly found in smoothies, baked goods like muffins and breads, and as a component in snack bars and cereals.

Health notes

Organic bananas are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food. They are a good source of potassium and vitamin B6. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated bananas and found no safety concerns. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

Bananas are not one of the nine major allergens designated by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
