Most vendors keep the apple banana's on the hand and hang them towards the back of their booth. They cost twice ($2 BZ for 5) what the regular ones do but keep much longer. When I find them I usually by several dollars worth.
Think of it - regular banana's cost a dime each here! I try to eat two a day along with one apple. The cost of the apple ($1.50 US for small ones)makes up for the savings.
Does anyone know where these apples are now coming from? They are crisp, juicey and sweet but the skins are not chewable. The birds appreiate the donations.
