ok so you've never bee to the DR, I'm suspecting. Girl you need to get yourself downthere immediately and have one of those green meaty platanos.
I think its an acquired taste, like casabe, I think if I wasn't dominican I wouldn't like casabe at all, cause it doesn't have any taste at all, unless you smear it with some gravy fromthe meat stew (beef, chicken, pork) then its mmmmm good. (casabe is made from grating the yuca root into a flour and them is made into a pizza shape and put in an oven) its like a cracker you accompany your meal with it.
