I was watching a food channel on YouTube one time, and the British chef was making a Thai dish that required being wrapped with a banana leaf.

So, when he did, another chef made a comment about him "wasting a large sheet of expensive banana leaf", and I was like "Huh!? The same banana/plantain leaves that are common here?"

Then, I went on to check the price on Amazon, and see what I found👇🏼

No place like Africa

Not much when you consider that it has to be delivered fresh. Such a job ties you down to the banana tree and the tree must be disease free to avoid poisoning the meal being wrapped. That's small money over there considering the stress and value associated with fresh leaf wrapped food.

This is unbelievable

What da heck ? >:

Not even the banana itself......

Oyinbo too dey place value on nonsense things

Actually, it depends on the location.. the reason why it seems (or is) expensive in Europe or North America is because of the cold weather over there.. .
Banana thrives on the tropics and cold weather or frost kills banana plant or sometimes makes them inactive...
And cuisines that demands banana leaves, always want them fresh...
Now getting these fresh leaves is now a hurdle!!!
Coz since banana plant (note my use of "Plant", and not "Tree", FOR BANANA IS NOT A TREE) barely manages to grow in cold regions, the leaves are very important to the plant....
So those leaves are quite hard to see...

Online earners....

AngelicBeing:
An online course on Selling banana leaves should start as soon as possible

It isn't about online course it's about creating an online income means.

AngelicBeing:
Online course, online earners are in the same family, if you don't learn, how do you earn , learning & Earnings work together and not in isolation

FYI friend ...Learning/knowing how to earn with ones skill is way different from learning/knowing a skill; reason we have lots of graduates without the intuitive and technical know-how to start earning with what they've qualified to be...reason many graphics artists have contacted me on here for mentorship and they now know how to earn with their graphics skill-set.


Wittyness
