It might be different for some places but bananas are like 79 cents a bunch, and when you compare that to other fruits like apples and oranges, theyre a good deal

For anyone interested, the podcast *Throughline* has a very interesting episode about the history of how bananas became a good staple and why they are extraordinarily cheap in North America, especially the US.

It’s called “Reframing History: Bananas”, published in August 2020.
