We wont have bananas that taste any good.

Cavendish bananas aren't the only varieties of bananas that taste good. For example Lakatan and Latundan taste good raw. It's just that most of the time they aren't feasible for export.

One epidemic and we won’t have bananas anymore.

Only for a few countries ;) There's still a lot of banana varieties eaten around the world.

Idk about Brazil but there's a lot of banana varieties that are regularly consumed around the world. There's Lakatan, Saba and Latundan in the Philippines for example, the Saba banana being really popular as a fried snack on a stick.

The silver lining is that it's biodegradable. And good as compost
