Mighty Bananas can be found growing in the tropical forests of Faron and on Eventide Island. They are also sold by Emri in Kara Kara Bazaar and dropped by Red Hinoxes. Eating one raw heals half of a Heart. When cooked, the resulting Food provides Link with attack buffs.[1] Mighty Bananes exposed to Fire become Roasted Mighty Bananas. They can be used at the Kochi Dye Shop to make Yellow Dye.

Mighty Bananas are one of three foodstuffs favored by the Sheikah, with the others being Swift Carrots and Fortified Pumpkins. They are the clear obsession of the Yiga Clan, as their hideout contains many mighty bananas and all defeated Yiga Footsoldiers and Blademasters drop them. Yiga Blademasters will also eat them when given the opportunity, which is a good distraction technique for sneaking past them in the Yiga Clan Hideout. Interestingly, Monk Maz Koshia will also stop fighting and eat them should Link provide him with some, showing that Mighty Bananas have been enjoyed by Sheikah for millennia.

Mighty Bananas are required to make Fried Bananas in a Cooking Pot. Along with other fruits, Mighty Bananas can be used to make Fruit Pie, Fruitcake, Honeyed Fruits, Simmered Fruit, Steamed Fruit, Fruit and Mushroom Mix, and Copious Simmered Fruit.
