This is a part of a banana leaf. I got this from the botanical gardens. Banana leaves are used to eat on. Raw bananas are cooked as a vegetable. We eat the ripe banana. The banana flower is also eaten as a vegetable. The banana tree is used in religious ceremonies.

Hello Indian friends,
I'm a teacher,and a grandmother in Denmark. I enjoyed reading your post about bananas, too. Although bananas do not grow in our temepered climate with relative cold winters, they are imported mostly from "banana republics" in Latin America, dominated by the United fruit Company.These bananas are cheap but the workers live under very hard conditions with health problems because of the chemicals used in production.
But we can also buy more expensive, but also much better and healthier bananas from small cooperative projects in Nicaragua or Equador (I think) where the banana farmers would get a fair price for their crop, and use less or no harmful chemicals in the production.
Every time I take my three litthe grandchildren to the playground for the afternoon, they would ask me if I have brought bananas for a snack, and most often I have. They love to eat it.
