Received a box of mushy plantains
I ordered this once before and received the plantains in good shape.Unfortunately this time around, 80% of the plantains I received were already overripe, mushy & browning inside. I essentially have to consume the whole box within the next few days or they'll go bad.I understand the logistics of ordering perishable foods can be dicey, but perhaps there's something that can be done to prevent a future occurrence of receiving food with only a few days left in it's lifespan?

The plantains are the closest I’ll get to Jamaica plantains. I will always order off Amazon. I’m glad I came across these now I don’t have to wait until I go back to Jamaica 🇯🇲

Absolutely wonderful customer service. My first order was perfect but I had a slight issue with the second order I placed (the plantains never ripened). so I contacted the vendor and they replaced the plantains for free.
The replacement plantains ripened beautifully and I thoroughly enjoyed them. I will be ordering more soon.

This plaintain did not turn yellow at all. Even after keeping it in a warm place of the house it refused to ripe. Instead it turned black and remained hardened. I ended up throwing it away. Not worth the time, patience or money. I will never purchase this product online again for this reason. I’ll rather purchase in store so I can see what I’m buying.

These are usually very nice and healthy but last batch was not right. Some of the plantains could not ripe and are hardened with black skin. I was able to eat around 2 from the bundle and that’s it.

For a perishable item, the product was received in good condition and ripened well. The quality of the plantains was good. and tasted well whether fried or boiled. I was a bit surprised that there were only seven (7) plantains in the box. I expected more plantains for the costs charged. It is a convenient buy for those who cannot get out to the stores.

Fresh Whole Plantains and they arrived green. I ordered them because I wanted yellow plantains. I ordered them on June 4 and they arrived on June 15th. They were green. On inspection they were in great shape and they looked like real, natural plantains look. I figure they will ripen to nice yellow plantains. I gave this product five stars on all counts, if they don't turn yellow and taste good I will amend this review. (With in days they did turn yellow and tasted great 7/17.)
