Where they about to go bad? Probably a cost leader type promotion in the Supermarket.
I guess if you are a US banana producer you have to come to the market with something that the Big Boys don't offer. Take a page out of the Craft Brew Industry and create some buzz with interesting varieties that are more difficult to ship long distances in order to capture premium prices. Identify the premium market/demand and work back to production. No way to compete on price with Big Banana.
