Japan-Korea 2019: Individually wrapped bananas

One of the strangest things about Japan (at least for me) is that you can buy individually wrapped bananas in some convenience stores. I’m not sure why I found this to be weird. Maybe it’s because I’m so used to bananas being sold in large bunches. In any case, if you only need one banana then Japan’s convenience stores have you covered. I also saw this and similar things in Korea, but they weren’t as common as in Japan.

Today’s photo is an individually wrapped banana that I got from a FamilyMart. I like the black packaging that makes it look like a luxury good. It certainly is priced like one.
