"Guineos" and "platanos" are from the same plant "musa". They are all just different varieties.
"Plantains" are not a different plant it's just the way we differentiate between "sweet" and "non-sweet" bananas.
There are hundreds of kinds of musa plants. Rulos are short and fat with a hard thick skin. As for eating them raw, I have never seen it.
Try one!
