Question:

Does putting bananas in the fridge slow down their ripening ?


Answers:
Yes...that is a good way to prevent them from becoming mushy. the skins will darken, but the flesh will remain edible.

no---the fruit is more likely to bruise though

Yes. The skins will blacken, but the fruit will still be good.

yea its like putting apples in water so they dont turn brown

No - it actually speeds it up.

When I took a food hygiene course, I was told never to put bananas in the fridge.

Yes it does but once you take them out from the fridge you have to eat right away or it end up mushy and dark.

No. It makes them turn black.

You never put bananas in refrigerator

Yeah. I'd say it slows it down by about 70%. The same is true with most all fruits and vegetables.

yes-- you can even put them in the freezer-- the skins will still turn black
