Re: Thai banana (kluai nam-wah) and manzano banana?
They shouldn't be. I haven't had manzano, aka Apple, but if it is anything like dwarf Brazillian (which we call Apple in Hawaii), namwah is quite different in taste, texture, and plant appearance. The namwahs I've seen have a thick pseudo stem and the fruit was also chunkier, with a more creamy, cantaloupe-like smell and taste.
