Review on Amazon: A banana for scale should be to scale https://a.co/d/aAZPaX4

Alt text1 star review by user "Tall Guys Wife" on Amazon of a rubber banana that has the words [for scale] on it.
Picture attached shows rubber banana is smaller than real banana.

Review text reads: "purchased this 'banana for scale, but it's way smaller than an average banana. People on social media demand if you're showing something that you use an average banana for scale. I would never deceive anyone with this ridiculous substitute for an accurate measuring tool."

Maybe it is a regional thing? I'm from the US and that is pretty much the size of every banana at my grocery store.

To clarify, by regional I mean that the US disproportionately buys / sells a variety of bananas that is just bigger. Though I'll admit I have not taken the time to google this so ๐Ÿคท

Its the same for bananas in Romania, but i know that at least in Egypt the bananas are closer in size to the fake banana
