Banana Substitute

by Annette Meyers
(Greensboro, NC)

I can not eat bananas. Just the smell of them make me sick. What can I eat in the place of bananas?

For the the banana day 4 of the cabbage soup diet you should consume at least 3 bananas . Bananas are high in carbohydrates and calories. You will need the carbs and potassium today.

Pawpaw (Papaya) also known as Indiana banana, might be a good substitute for banana, if it is available in your area. You should enjoy Pawpaw fruit fesh. (by the way, it is is often substituted for bananas when baking banana bread.) If not available in your area, you could also try kiwis. From nutritional value Kiwi and papaya outrank bananas as the top low-sodium, high-potassium fruits. These two are also the fruits that provide the most nutrition. Very low in fat, one papaya has just half the calories of a large banana.

banana replacement options

I really find Bananas difficult to eat-is there a replacement fruit i can use on Banana day?

Dear Celia,

you may try papayas (pawpaws) instead of bananas.
Other banana replacement options for the day 4 of the cabbage soup diet are apricots or kiwis.

apricots instead of bananas

I'm looking for a substitute to the bananas on day 4. My husband is allergic to bananas, papayas & kiwis. Is there anything else we can substitute?

Hi,
this is a difficult question. Maybe your husband could replace bananas with apricots - they are also high in pottasium.

All the best,
