True story: when I spent a semester in Sydney, the dining hall would ration one banana per person! Bananas really are borderline prohibitively expensive for large Aussie cafeterias!

Is this how many bananas can be bought in each country for 5 USD or 5 of whatever that country’s dominant money/coinage is? Obviously 5 USD would go much further in Ethiopia than in America, but it should also go further in Australia.
I initially thought the cost in Australia and France must be higher because bananas are likely imported, but it seems Ethiopia isn’t exactly a banana farming paradise. I don’t think they’re particularly common there. So why are they so cheap (whether relative to 5 USD of 5 Ethiopian whatevers)?
