If you ever try a product that states that it contains artificial banana flavoring, then you might be disappointed to discover that it just does not taste like the bananas that you have experienced. Well, there is a very good explanation as to why that is the case.

Pretty much every version of artificial banana flavoring in the world is actually based on a type of banana that was completely wiped out by disease back in the 1950’s so, it’s no wonder that we have this idea that it does not taste like banana. The truth of the matter is that it does, but we are not used to it leading to our disappointment.

It turns out that it is not the creator of the flavoring that has the problem, but rather us.
