Simple Trick: How to Keep Your Bananas Fresh for Weeks

Belgrade, Serbia - A recent video from Najzena.rs has offered a simple yet effective solution for a common household problem: keeping bananas fresh for longer. According to the video, bananas ripen quickly due to the release of ethylene gas, a process accelerated when they are stored near other fruits. To combat this, the video suggests two primary methods. Firstly, it is recommended to store bananas separately from other fruits to minimize their exposure to ripening agents. Secondly, and perhaps more surprisingly to some, the video advocates for refrigerating bananas. While this method may cause the banana peel to turn black, the internal fruit remains fresh and edible, as the cold environment significantly slows down the ripening process. Many users reportedly recommend this as the most effective solution for extending the shelf life of bananas.
