The heart can be eaten as a vegetable. When I was a child I remember eating a boiled banana (Saba variety) with seed. But this is my first time to see one full of seeds. I googled and found this website: stuartxchange.org/Butuan.html. This variety can reproduce sexually (also seeds spread by birds and other animals) unlike cultivated ones which are sterile.

I think it's called Musa errans Blanco. Common names Platano Butuhan, Saging Butuhan, Butuan, Butuhan banana.
