How do you keep bananas?

Answer 1

There are several ways to keep whole unpeeled bananas fresh longer so they don't get spots and turn overly sweet and overly soft. One is to put them in the vegetable and fruit plastic bags (usually colored green) that work to keep the ripening gases from building up. Another way is to put them in the refrigerator. This makes the peels turn dark or even black, but the fruit inside is kept firm and fresher longer than outside the refrigerator. A third way is to keep them in a cool place in the kitchen out of bright light and open with plenty of ventilation so any gases that are released won't stay close to the bunch, build up, and speed up the ripening process.

Answer 2

Plant a small banana tree. Banana trees send up small trees from their roots. Bananas in grocery stores all came from one tree that was propagated that way and had its decendents spread to large plantations.
