You probably are using a bad database entry. The database is crowd sourced so you have to be careful which entries you use, not everyone puts the micro nutrients in.
Try "bananas raw" and see if you can find a better entry.5 -

You are likely using an incorrect or incomplete entry.
The entry I use for Bananas has potassium. It also has a huge list of serving sizes (small, medium, large, 100g, ounces, 1 NLEA serving, etc).0 -
Try: 'Bananas USDA'
Adding the USDA to foods *usually* (not always) helps.2 -
Unfortunately, the "verified" green check marks are used for both user-created entries and system entries. To find system entries for whole foods, I get the syntax from the USDA database and plug that into MFP.2
