  • How much do five bananas cost you?

    I just bought five lovely bananas for a pound.

    About a dollar (USD).

      My mistake. It was six. Six bananas for a pound.

        They charge per pound here, not per banana.

            In market about P15/kg, from street vendors it's about P1/banana depending on the location

              Sometimes here too. This was at a street market. "How much for this?" "A pound". "ok".

                same, although won't have any new ones ready for at least a month.

                  A bag of bananas is a pound in our street market too.

                    Our bananas are $0.59 a pound.
                    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                      Last time I was at the grocery store I think I paid somewhere between 41 cents a pound and 61 cents a pound. (It was either 41, 51 or 61, don't remember which).

                          I knew your smug ass shopped at Trader Joe's.


                          And it's 2lbs/$1 here. Bananas are by far the cheapest fruit.

                          Interesting that it's three times as expensive in Britain.

                            I don't talk about my bananas.
