Tbf, you're buying an 8-10 pound box of them, which, according to the images, is more than likely at least around a dozen of them.

Still expensive, but it's somewhere in the ballpark of $10-20 per banana rather than a single $177 banana.

fwiw it does seem to be for a box of 7-10 lbs, but still

Interesting that the flavor profile says nothing about the flavor, only the texture.
