Talk:Banana leaf

Edibility
For dishes cooked or served in banana leaves, is the leaf itself eaten or is it discarded after the contents are eaten? 67.188.230.128 (talk) 05:34, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
 * User:67.188.230.128, they are discarded. The leaves more or less serve the same purpose as wax paper or greaseproof paper. Except they also lend an appetizing plant-like fragrance to the dish they are cooked or served with. -- O BSIDIAN  †  S OUL  05:50, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I added this to the article; if you have a ref please add it. 2601:644:101:9616:149A:9819:DB53:2AE3 (talk) 02:31, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
