[edit] Request for clarification

What does this mean? The large, thick leaves are, on the same tree, almost entire to deeply cut into pinnate lobes.

Hmm. Not sure. I think the “on the same tree” part is superfluous. I'll edit it to read “The large and thick leaves are deeply cut into pinnate lobes.”. — Jéioosh 05:08, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

A Spanish article would be kinda nice,since it is a staple food in alot of the Spanish speaking islands in the caribbean. all I know that it's called panapen in Spanish

[edit] 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

Should we slip in some sort of mention of it appearing in Jule Verne's book? AllStarZ 04:45, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

There could be a “Trivia” section as with many other articles. Stick it there in a bullet point. — Jéioosh 22:16, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Racism

"It was first collected and distributed by Lieutenant William Bligh "

Huh? I'm sure other people have collected the fruit before him! Maybe he was the first white person to collect it. Can somebody knowledgable about the subject matter rewrite that part?--Sonjaaa 19:56, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Leaves

Can the leaves be used to prepare an herbal tea? A friend says that this is done in Vietnam. Badagnani 02:56, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
