Randall is way off-base here, by about an order of magnitude. The episode is about Bluth frozen bananas, which require refrigeration, chocolate, and custom labor; they also do not have the economies of scale of fresh bananas. The AD wiki says the prices are >$1; in "Top Banana," Maeby says they cost at least $1. In real life, frozen bananas cost $5 in LA, $8 at ice cream shops on LA-area beaches. This is a joke similar to the Pulp Fiction $5 milkshake; milkshakes have been much more expensive than that for years. --[[Special:Contributions/172.70.207.149|172.70.207.149]] 19:12, 9 February 2024 (UTC) | Randall is way off-base here, by about an order of magnitude.

: Randall sometimes ignores basic elements about how the real world works in order to make a nerdy joke or point. The comic last week about Black Hat being tracked 8,000 miles away by NIST is a good example of that. The whole thing rests on us entering into his (slightly) alternate universe with him.

:Given that these are a Bluth product, I'd be dubious about how much actual banana is involved in the first place.[[Special:Contributions/172.70.90.70|172.70.90.70]] 09:25, 12 February 2024 (UTC) | :Given that these are a Bluth product, I'd be dubious about how much actual banana is involved in the first place.[[Special:Contributions/172.70.90.70|172.70.90.70]] 09:25, 12 February 2024 (UTC) |
