Trying to keep bananas from getting too ripe, too quickly

I have never been able to keep bananas very long either. Let us know if you find a way to preserve them. They are so very good for you and loaded with nutrients! Sometimes before they go bad I throw them in the freezer. I then use them for baking and for smoothies. THat way they are not wasted!

I have had so many problems with bananas ripening too fast that I am to the point that I don't buy them as often. It is a waste. So the last time I got some I bought them as green as possible and put them in a white shopping bag. Just pure snow white. They lasted much longer. Up to four days longer than they usually do.

I have heard that it is better for bananas not to remain in the groups they originally come in. It is better if one tears them appart from their group to store them individually. I hope this helps your predicament!

ive never heard of this product. i often wonder what makes bananas go bad so very fast. ive never thought to do a search about this but maybe i should try that. there may be a reason for it or maybe another way. hope we get an answer here

hi stary, I myself love bananas so very much and eat them very often...The only way I have found out how to not let them go to ripen on you is to eat them, smoothie them, or make a baanana pudding...I am just saying, they'll all good....LOL...

stary1 I do not want my bananas to be all yellow .For diabetes the banana thats got some green on it is the best as its lowest in sugar yet it gives me the potassium in need to keep from having those painful leg cramps in the middle of the night. I imagine you also eat them for the potassium in them too , right. I buy the greenest I can find then store them in the fridge for a few days but they never have a chance to get really dark on me. lol.

I can recommend you to do what the juice bible say ( it is a book about making juices from fruits and vegetables , describing a lot of health advantages : writen by pat crocker and suzan eagles ) : this book says you are supposed to pick the fruits from trees or buy them from a natural store so they were grown with no poison sprayed on them. You have to eat the fruits and vegetables during the first two days after you get them. The nutrients are still inside and some other valuable materials. I also used to pick up fruits from trees around the area where I live. It is fun and you feel like you did something productive and saved money too. I wish to grow some fruits and vegetables myself someday.
