Why did apples become more expensive than bananas? and got a better answer
Response from Антон Владимирович[+++++]
The price of apples is made up of the labor of gardeners, the labor of pickers, and transportation costs. For bananas, there is no grower labor, but transportation costs are higher. But if you take the fact that they are delivered by thousands of tons by sea, then this item of expenditure is greatly reduced. With us, every apple is delivered to the store almost by personal transport, so not only do you have to pay the grower, but also the small transporters?

Apples have always been more expensive than carrots. Bananas, same as potatoes essentially.

Because our friends from the Caucasus won't let us sell apples at their real price. In the middle belt in the ancients they are worth nothing.

ours and so close, but so far away. 6652393 Because what we consider bananas in civilized countries is used as fodder for pigs.
