Washington, D.C. native Joseph Lamour is a lover of food: its past, its present and the science behind it. With food, you can bring opposites together to form a truly marvelous combination, and he strives to take that sentiment to heart in all that he does.
The cost of bananas at one specialty grocer has become a little less a-peel-ing. Trader Joe’s has confirmed to TODAY.com that it recently raised the price of individually-sold bananas from 19 cents to 23 cents, which is an increase of around 20%. “We recently changed the price of a single banana to 23¢, which still represents a tremendous everyday value for Bananas,” a Trader Joe’s spokesperson tells TODAY.com.
” As for how everyday folks are reacting to the news, people on social media are predictably apoplectic, with one writing on X, “trader joes u will pay for what u have done .” Another commented that they “do think this officially means the economy is f---ed.” Unlike other grocers who sell by-the-pound, Trader Joe’s sells its bananas individually, all thanks to the feedback of one clever customer years ago.
