Bananas vs. Plantains – Hold Up with Dulcé Sloan & Josh Johnson | The Daily Show

Published on September 15, 2022

Last week, Josh and Dulcé promised an episode on bananas vs. plantains and they delivered. Dulcé defends her love for plantains, and goes after Josh’s banana-yellow hoodie (yep, he color-coordinated, and yep, she went there). Josh and Dulcé also chat about whether anyone actually likes banana-flavored candy, how you CAN but shouldn’t eat a raw plantain, and why some people feel the need to hum while eating.

    I can’t believe Dulce had the audacity to use the same argument for plantains that she dogged Josh for about chocolate. WOW.

    I don’t even know how Josh thought he could win this one. Plantains have way more versitility and nutrients than bananas do.

    I could live the rest of my life off fried plantains. I don’t even need to salt them. Bananas are a bland fruit for unexcited people.

    Plantains win all the way. Maduros, patacones, mofongo, plantain chips… Plantains can be sweet or savory… Bananas just don’t have the versatility. Banana flavoured candy was created by Beelzebub to torture our poor souls upon this mortal realm. Dulce, I’m with you 100%.

    Also, Dulce! Helloooooooooo! You should have just told your buddy, that to enhance the flavour of most chocolate, vanilla is added! Chocolate also does not stand on its own, and vanilla is the second most expensive flavouring in the world. A bakery can survive without chocolate, but not without vanilla. Chocolate has to be processed to death to be usable for most people, vs just being able to scoop the flavourful seeds out of a vanilla bean pod to use them. I felt as if you needed to tag someone in for that debate. Josh got the upper hand, but the vanilla itself is the clear winner.

    10 minutes in and Josh knew he was on the ropes. It’s sad to watch because he really thought he had it this episode.

    Love some banana pudding and banana bread….but plantains smoke bananas on versatility and variety of dishes.
