Описание: Japan is the only place in the world where bananas are marketed and priced by cultivation altitude: lowland, midland, highland, and super highland. In the late 1980s, plantation managers in the southern Philippines discovered that the higher up one grew, the sweeter the bananas became. The sweeter the bananas, the closer to the sweetness of colonial Taiwanese bananas, a taste that had been lost when Japan switched to Philippines suppliers. Professor Alyssa Paredes discusses how the “highland cultivated banana” was invented and how fruits have become commodities endowed with unique, prized characteristics.Dr. Alyssa Paredes is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Michigan.This event is in partnership with the Culinary Historians of Ann Arbor.
