Banana Bonanza craft kit

Hello. Recently I was at toyrus and I saw this kit by dunecraft called Banana Bonanza. On the box it says the seed type is Musa ensete ventricosum. On the seed packet it says Musa ensete,ensete ventricosum. After a few minutes of research I am led to believe that the fruit is unedible but the package makes no mention of this. It says for 4 years and up and I was hoping to add it to our veggie garden this year but would like some more information.

If they are inedible is any part of the plant poisonous? Is there another type that we could try that actually produces edible fruit? We live in zone 10 and I hope to use a whiskey barrel for planting.

Any help would be much appreciated. I did e-mail the company but I am waiting on their response.

Thanks!
