Bananas are amazingly cheap. At least here in the US Midwest. Even the organic ones. They’re my reference for “cheap food”.

In places like in the south of India they’re almost always free. The banana trees grow like weeds and in many cases self propagate and come back on their own every year.

I've lived all my life in South India and I've never seen free bananas. The Robusta Cavendish bananas are inexpensive and ubiquitous though.
