A quick check of Wikipedia says that it&#x27;s still produced in Thailand and Malaysia and exported to other countries in Asia.<p>It&#x27;s just that since most of the Gros Michel plantations in South America and Africa got wiped out, exports to North America and Europe basically shut down.<p>I too wouldn&#x27;t mind trying one, for the same reasons... guess it&#x27;s a solid reason I should visit Southeast Asia at least once before I die.
