During the Middle Ages, bananas were eaten in Southeastern Asia, but were not available in Europe. The only way medieval Europeans could have eaten them would have been if they were dried and traded to Europe through India, which seems unlikely, or if the Europeans went to where bananas grew, which probably a few did.

The modern banana was first cultivated after 1500, and brought to plantations in Central and South America.
