Plantains are firmer and have a lower sugar content than bananas. Also, plantains are starchy and can be cooked and eaten like a potato when unripe (green). When overripe, plantains are sweet. Bananas are mostly eaten raw and are much sweeter. According to Wikipedia: "There is no formal botanical distinction between bananas and plantains, and the use of either term is based purely on how the fruits are consumed."
Plantains belong to the banana family. However, green plantains have less sugar and contain more starch then a banana. Plantains are fried or boiled before eating. This food source is grown in regions like the Caribbean.
