Gasoline has about 11 kcal per gram, so it would actually probably be substantially more than 2600 kcal of fossil fuels per food calorie to grow them in Alaska.

now corrected. and my 12,000 square mile subterranean alaskan banana system does not run on fancy gasoline, but rather asphalt-burning boilers providing heat and converting mechanical energy into electrical power for metal halide lights.

its more of a global terraforming effort that produces $100 bananas as a side hustle.

At that point it's more venuforming than terraforming
