I thought about buying those purple carrots. Then I saw the price compared to normal carrots and decided it was a silly idea.

I don't know, I don''t buy bananas. Surely they're not something you would get instead though? Hmmm what to have with lamb chops? Hmmmmm carrots I think. Actually, no bananas are cheaper, we'll have them instead???????

Ok just done a coles online thing. The purple ones are sold in little bunches for $2.98 a bunch and loose normal Carrots are $1.98 a kilo.

According to Coles, Bananas are currently $5.a kilo. I don't know how much the bunches of Purple Carrots are, I'd guess at about 300grams so Bananas (Loose per kilo) are currently cheaper than Purple Carrots (by the kilo).

Hope that helps.
