Do bananas have seeds in them?

Wild bananas, prior to domestication, do have seeds. But like seedless grapes, humans have found and cultivated seedless mutations. So now all banana trees come from cuttings and there are no seeds in the fruit.

The little brown specs in a banana are the vestiges of seeds that did not develop because of the mutation.
