There's A Catch To Storing Your Bananas In The Fridge
NEWS

To prevent bananas from ripening too quickly and turning brown, store only ripe bananas in the refrigerator to slow down the ripening process.
Don’t refrigerate green bananas, as it will prevent them from ripening properly, and instead freeze overripe bananas for future use in recipes like banana bread.
Bananas with a green stem aren’t ripe; a stem that is yellow and easily snaps is ripe. Large brown or black spots indicate the banana is overripe.
When storing the bananas in the fridge, don’t place them in a bag, in a crowded part of your fridge, or around other produce. Store them for only five to seven days in the fridge.
