"Bananeros" This is a job title I want

Wow, not every company takes this much care for sure. I knew someone who worked at Morrisons in the UK, and often they'd get banana spiders inside the crates of bananas, either dead or alive. This is really fascinating to watch, though, I love this shit.

It's always been fascinating to me that bananas are at all profitable considering the ridiculous amount of effort needed to grow and maintain them. Compare that to something like walnuts or cherries where you just drive a tractor up to the tree with a vibrating clamp and literally shake the stuff off the tree.
