Plantains were edible fruits produced by the plantain tree.[1]

Usage[]

Plantains were a staple of Chultan cousine. They were cooked, often served with fish koko-yams, and palm wine,[5] or cooked into a sauce.[6]

Availability[]

Plantain trees could be found growing within the gardens of Generon - the palace of the Lord of Arrabar.[1]

Plantains grew in the jungles of Chult where they were a part of Tabaxi diet. In the Agricultural Quarter of Mezro, the tabaxi tribesfolk cultivated plantains, along with many other sources of food for the city.[2]

On the islands of Jazirat al-Qraidis in the Crowded Sea, plantains were a common sight as well as were objects of trade for the locals. Thick forests of plantain trees granted the city of Sams Bandar one of its major export goods.[3] Plantains were also widely available for the semi-nomadic halflings of the Tarangu, Jazayir al-Alfar. Plantains also were offered monthly to Kar'r'rga, the great crab god.[4]
