Apostrophe's are hard to use

Currently out of the banana's what? The apostrophe at the end of "bananas" makes me assume that the banana owns something. This causes me to think that this sentence has not been finished. When the apostrophe is used as an "apostrophe 's,'" it would mean possession. This apostrophe doesn't belong here for that very reason. I think this person is only trying to say that they are out of bananas, not the bananas something. You cannot just use an apostrophe to make a regular noun plural.
