Trump has all that Goya money for his Oval Office TV advertisement supporting the brand.

Unless I make my own from fresh plantains, which I eventually will. Goya is the only brand I can find near me. Unfortunately. But I am stoked to make homemade tostones.

I get it, I hope you enjoy them either way, just being an internet ass and telling you (who didnt ask) that goya sucks.

In Panama we fry them in oil and call them patacones, they're outstanding with just some salt

They're a high starch part of the banana family, but taste more like slighty sweet potatoes in my opinion. They're good fried or roasted.

I forgot to turn off my sarcasm filter today. Sorry for the inconvenience, lol.

I need a fact check. Anyone who knows Spanish well enough, is this why they are called tostones.

To fry in Spanish AI

I think it’s basically “toasties”.

Makes more sense as toasties.
