Would you purchase organic plantains? Or tired of having to go out of your way to find plantains at all? Then this petition is for you.
I think they should be MUCH more available than they currently are. The culture, nutrition, and many uses warrant broader availability.
The number one reason is due to perceived lack of consumer demand. The banana industry is constantly booming, so I don't see any reason for plantains to not be able to follow suit.
All we need to do is show an increased demand for this product. That's all.
