About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Fry’s Food and Drug, a regular exclaimed one day, ‘I just saw something strange!’ A delivery driver had accidentally left a crate of glow-in-the-dark bananas in the produce section. Word spread quickly through the store like wildfire. Soon, customers were lining up not for groceries but to see the glowing bananas. The manager, trying to keep things under control, announced over the intercom: 'Please don’t pick them up—just look and go!' And so, for an afternoon, Fry’s became famous for its neon banana exhibit.
2. At Fry’s Food and Drug, an elderly gentleman was pushing his cart down the aisle when he heard a tiny voice: ‘Daddy, why do those bananas look like they’re dancing?’ The old man looked up and saw his little granddaughter smiling sweetly. ‘Well,’ he whispered gently, ‘some bananas are just born with more rhythm than others.’ They both laughed softly as she reached for a box of cereal. Later that evening, back home, while unpacking groceries, their neighbor popped in to borrow some sugar. ‘Hey!’ exclaimed the neighbor, eyeing the dancing bananas in the fridge. ‘Who taught them to dance?’
3. At Fry’s Food and Drug, a delivery driver once pulled up in his truck, only to discover that his rearview mirror had been replaced with a giant marshmallow. He tried to drive off, but every time he looked back, there it was—still a fluffy white marshmallow. Confused and amused, the driver asked his coworkers if anyone had seen anything similar. Turns out, it wasn’t just him—they’d all noticed the same thing. Soon enough, word spread around town, and neighbors started bringing their own marshmallows for ‘emergency replacements.’ Nowadays, whenever someone spots a marshmallow in Fry’s parking lot, they joke that it must be part of an ongoing practical joke between employees.
4. At Fry’s Food and Drug, on a chilly morning when most shoppers were still asleep, a delivery driver noticed something unusual. As he unloaded crates of bananas, he kept hearing soft laughter from inside one box. Curious, he opened the crate carefully, expecting maybe a mischievous prankster or a hidden camera. Instead, there was just a small banana monkey, chattering away happily. The delivery driver named it Bananabear and took him home as a surprise for his neighbor, who loved unusual pets. Since then, Bananabear became a local celebrity, appearing in neighborhood parades and greeting customers at Fry’s every Saturday.
