Iron and Bananas

I learned today that the market prices of bananas and raw iron have been the same for years and years. I think it's been around 60 cents per pound, and they have matched each other over the years. Isn't that crazy? I tried looking it up, but I couldn't find any documentation or explanation of the connection.

Rats, I was hoping the bananas were cheaper--thinking maybe I could use them for the infrastructure on our next building project...
