I love going to our farmers market on the weekend and buying fresh produce like bananas. 
Same here!  I love Bananas too.  In some places around the world they're called Plantains.
I thought plantains were something different than a banana. Do they taste the same?
Yes indeed.  They're also grown in 135 countries.  They can also be used to make fiber!
Oh wow! What country produces the most? 
Well as of 2016 China took that number one spot.  India alongside of them accounted for almost 30% of total production world wide!
Do they import them  to America from China? 
Indeed they do.  They've been importing since the old scientific name of "Musa Sapientum" was used.
How can they make money on them, bananas cost me like $2 a week?
Well they vary in price, as well as size, color and firmness.  You should be able to find them for quite cheap!
