I noticed that too. I dont buy bananas from there anymore



I am leery of much of Costco fruit.

I'm a devoted Trader Joe shopper, but I did get tired of their produce, so now I buy at our Co-op. Expensive (all organic, which I don't always require) but SO
fresh and good!

We also have 4 farmer's markets in town - Wednesday, Saturday (2) and Sunday.
Again, not cheap, but guaranteed to be grown and sold by farmer -- no middlemen.

Where I do NOT buy is Whole Foods. Expensive, Yuppy style. How fresh is produce one doesn't know. And now they've been caught with their pants down, charging for the container when weighing out purchase, where it's supposed to automatically deduct weight of container. Huge scandal.
