Monday we had to run back to Costco just for one thing. We are walking out...and there is the same lady- with another cart full of bananas! WTH? Does she have a gorilla at home or an animal sanctuary or something??
She might be buying for a smoothies shop -- most of the fruit they use probably has pretty good shelf life (or is frozen), but bananas don't freeze well and have a pretty limited "window" of usefulness. And they're very common fruit smoothie ingredients.
It would be very un-PC for me to describe her, but let me just say that in Chicago on Lower Wacker Drive there used to be these homeless guys who found some office furniture and set up a pretend office right there on the street. They would act like they were answering phones, filing things, and were just generally hard at work.
If this lady has a smoothie shop, it's probably right next to their office.
mmmMMMmm.... smooooothies.
