While typically bright yellow, it is possible for them to change to green, red, or orange as they ripen. It is often pickled, stuffed or used as a raw ingredient in foods. A mature plant will reach 1 to 2 feet tall and can be grown in many climates, but prefer warmer climates. Banana peppers are an optimum food for inclusion in weight loss diets, containing low amounts of calories, fat, and sodium. They are also a good source of dietary fiber, vitamin A, potassium and a very good source of vitamin C. The mild heat associated with them makes it ideal for adding to lighter fare such as salads in order to make them feel more filling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little River Cooperative","offers":[{"title":"4\" potted plant","offer_id":42664983560274,"sku":null,"price":6.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 gal potted plant","offer_id":42664983593042,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"3 gal potted plant","offer_id":42664983625810,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0535\/4461\/products\/ScreenShot2020-08-15at2.17.42PM.png?v=1597515494","url":"https:\/\/littlerivernursery.co\/products\/sweet-banana-pepper","provider":"Little River Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
