When you buy bananas, break them apart into individual bananas instead of leaving them in the bunch.
Why YSK: The stem of the bunch is the main culprit for releasing ethylene gas, which is basically a ripening accelerator. By separating them, you significantly slow down this process. This means your bananas will stay yellow and edible for far longer, saving you from having to eat a dozen bananas in two days or, more likely, throwing them out. No more premature browning, unless you’re specifically aiming for banana bread. Your fruit bowl (and wallet) will thank you.
Are you telling me some kind of gmo banana could be like a biological weapon? asks Rampant Paranoia
I wouldn’t put it out of the realm of possibility, there have also been cases of large swarms of mosquitoes killing cows, hopefully we’re a little more peaceful before someone figures out how to use things like this as a weapon
