Well recently I decided that I needed more bananas in my diet and so, I was told by a friend that the very best bananas are at Wal-Mart and so I went to have a look. Indeed there they were right out front and the price nearly blew me away; only $.38 per pound.

How can bananas be only $.38 a pound? Most of these bananas come from halfway around the world and then go to a distribution center for Wal-Mart and end up in the stores. Imagine all the cost it takes to grow them, ship them and then deliver them to the local Wal-Mart. Has Wal-Mart gone completely bananas?

Well it just so turns out that Wal-Mart sells more bananas than anyone else in the world and it is the number one selling item at Wal-Mart. In fact they sell more bananas than toilet paper if you can believe that. So if you are thinking about buying some bananas you won't be alone if you buy them from Wal-Mart.

Consider if you will that good bananas are for you and I guess it makes sense from your far-off ancestry. What type of banana recipes are you making; have you considered it? Perhaps you have and if not you should because at $.38 per pound that is a heck of a bargain. Go bananas; go Wal-Mart! Consider this in 2006.
