1 mEq per inch of banana and 10 mEq raises the serum K by 0.1 mEq (at least temporarily)
But oral K has widely variable bioavailability and we are used the very high bioavailability of KCl. KPhos in bananas likely has lower absorption.

When the Retina Crystallizes: Retinal Oxalosis with Neovascular Sequelae
A 49-year-old woman with chronic kidney disease and secondary hyperoxaluria receiving dialysis presented with bilateral visual impairment for 2 months. The right eye could perceive light, and the left eye could not. Intraocular pressure was 58 mmHg in both eyes, with florid rubeosis irides. Fundus examination revealed vitreous hemorrhage with multiple yellow crystalline deposits along vessels and within the retinal layers bilaterally (A, B). Fluorescein angiography revealed widespread capillary nonperfusion secondary to occlusion of both arterioles and veins (C).
