Diane, thanks for clarifying that the plantain you are talking about is Plantago Major and not its synonim Musa Paradisiaca, the large banana normally used cooked and not raw. It is a shame that it is not the last one, very common here. I have not found out if we have the Plantago major available in our country. It seems to be very useful.

Regards,

Carlos

Carlos..
 I only know it by another name of Plantago Major or lanceolate. It looks
like a common weed to me. Seeds and leaves are both used. In woods, I have
taken the leave, bruised it, and put it on affected area in poultice form.

I think what you are talking about is plantains, which is a relative of the banana, but not sure. Very good eating, if that is what you are talking about.
