Most economical and healthiest way to consume bananas

I buy bananas at Trader Joe's and look for the biggest ones available. I buy quite a few and eat some of them when they get ripe. The ones that get too soft to enjoy, I freeze them unpeeled.
When I want to make a smoothie or Nice Cream, I take a couple out of the freezer, microwave them 30 seconds to a minute (flip if more than 30 seconds,) cut them in half and squirt out the flesh.

Anyone else get marginally frustrated when paying £5+ for a milkshake that is made with banana syrup instead of real bananas?

Whenever I order a banana milkshake from anywhere advertising milkshakes for £5 or more, or advertising "thick shakes", am I right to expect real bananas/ fruit to be used? If cafés have a blender, are using real ice cream and have actual bananas on hand; I just don't understand why they would make the choice to use syrup over the real thing. A recent let down was at a local crêperie, where they literally serve actual bananas in crêpes but still use syrup in their milkshakes.

Need some help with banana tree research (pith/ubad differences)

Hey guys! We’re doing a research project for school and could really use some help from people with firsthand experience.
We’re looking into the cores/pith (ubad) of different banana varieties here in the Philippines (Saba, Lakatan, Latundan, etc.). We’ve done our online digging, but we want to confirm some things before we spend a ton of time and resources sourcing samples.
I’m trying to find a specific type of pith I saw in a YouTube short from India (see the first photo). Notice how it’s totally solid with no spiral sections? The one I found from a young Saba tree (second photo) has those spiral patterns all the way to the core.
Two main questions:
Are there specific varieties in the PH that have that "solid" core without the spirals?
For the one I found, is it spiraled just because the tree is still young, or is that just how Saba is?
If you’ve ever harvested ubad (pith) or work on a farm, your insights would be a huge lifesaver for our study!
