Most people like greener bananas. But The Healthiest ones have some Brown spots on them. This means the enzymes are starting . Which is the best for human / animals gut health. You can Only get these enzymes when the banana start getting brown.
Great info, thanks so much for sharing!
Thank u
Note: If you have banana's that have spots on them, peal them and throw them in a zip lock back and put them in the freezer. They make great ice cream. 1 banana in a food processor with 1 cup mango, and coconut milk up to the lowest blade. Blend until smooth. If you want it sweeter, add a little sweetener. OR 1 banana with cocoa, milk, and sweetener. Try banana, strawberries and pineapple chunks with milk for a blended banana split. You can also make banana bread.
I love that tip Sandra, sounds delicious. I love to make banana "nice" cream in my blender but need to try this in my food processor. Great tip about the liquid to the first blade. Thank you!
Only 1 fruit at a time.
Fruit has changed the way I eat breakfast. I like whole grain pancakes or waffles. I never put syrup or butter on them. Most times I use blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. When berries start to go out of season, I'll use kiwi 😊 and banana.
Too long video boring
My next door neighbor told me to put them in the fridge when they ripen. I did and the skin turned brown but the insides stayed good for over a week. Just take them out for about 5 minutes and let em warm up. They'll be as good as the day you brought them home.
Great tip thank you for sharing. I do this all the time myself.
Had to be when only a little bit green at the tops. Dark cupboard until then
They don’t go brown then 👊
@@aaronpearson2548 Thanks Aaron!
If you store banana in the Debbie Meyer green bags sold at Bed and Bath or on line Store in fridge and they stay hard for a week or more. Then when they are softn enough and veryripe make banana bread. Ive been doing this for years.
Living in Vietnam I grow bananas mostly the finger size variety, we pick them when one is just turning yellow, cut the bunch into hands and store them outside in a shady spot.
The size of the bunch can be regulated by removing the flower after the desired number of hands have appeared.
We also grow a larger size variety just for the flower, which is shredded for salads, some people ferment the fruit as they have a strange flavor. Of course, as we take the flower theirs no fruit.
Each plant will bear one bunch and once removed the tree is cut down and given to the pig man, the leaves are used as a mulch and weed covering.
We barter all the fruit we can't eat any that go rotten are buried near our roses. Or put in the compost. Nothing gets wasted.
Must try your ice cream recipe, so thanks for posting.
Great information! Thanks for sharing🙂
The skins of the bananas contain almost as much healthy minerals as does the fruit. Wash the bananas and eat fruit. Take the skins now in strips and cut off the hard brown parts at the ends. Cut strips into small pieces and place in jar with water, salt and a small amount of vinegar. Store in fridge for about 2 weeks before eating as pickled skins. Enjoy!
You buy bananas in twos. Two ripe ones perfect for eating. Two slightly green ones. Then Two very green ones. They will ripen at different intervals and you eat them as they ripen.
That's what I do, but you can't run to the store every two days either....and she does offer how to make them last longer and a lot of comments too sure helps.....I will try a few I just read.....like putting in plastic bag & in bottom of fridge....I was always told never put bananas in the fridge.....lol so I guess you live & learn.....
t
Great tip thank you. I try to do this when I can, but can't always get the exact colour I want.
@@TheKentuckylady717 my mum said she heard that too. I think it is because bananas can speed up the ripening of other food so it may cause other fruit in your fridge to go off faster.
Pears and peaches sold in the grocery stores are picked too soon and are often tasteless and hard. Bananas are great to help ripen pears and peaches. I get a couple of pears or peaches out of the fridge and place them in a basket by my bananas. The following morning they are ready to eat , juicy and sweet.
That is a great tip, love that! Thanks so much for sharing. :)
I have learned some interesting things regarding bananas. I simply cut the banana from the bunch where they join one another. Doing this makes the banana naturally form a seal where its been cut. I keep my bananas an extra two or three days longer. The cut is doing what wrapping the end in plastic wrap does.
Video is TOO LONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MAKE YOUR VIDEOS SHORT --> 2 - 3 minutes long.
Thank you for the feedback. I am just creating some new videos for this channel and they are going to be straight to the point, and will also do some shorts too.
@Micro Sp20 Lect , you could just stop watching after 2 - 3 minutes. There are some of us that enjoy the longer and more explanatory videos, not tik toks. Have a good day 🌻
@@shreddersconnectThere are plenty of short videos to watch. Do what you want to do. This video was informative and included many details as well as creative ideas which i appreciate. Thanks!
Yesssss! Unnecessarily long. Didn’t make it to the end.
Yes too too long. Quit after 4mins.
Yes you can store bananas in the frig. but like you said they will turn the bananas grey to black , but when the Bananas are refrigerated below 56-57 degrees you also risk dehydration. also don't just pull the bananas apart use a knife to cut them when they pulled apart it stresses the bananas and causes the necks to turn black and shortens shelf life by days.
Great tip, thank you. I didn't know that.
I've always used my over ripe bananas to make banana bread. The bread is better when the banana is brown after the skin is removed.
Over ripe bananas have higher sugar content than green ...
@@mariankeller5852 Of course, those little brown dots are the sugar content going up.
Great tip thank you! I adore banana bread and sometimes make it myself too.
I freeze all my bananas unless they are green. I love frozen bananas as they make a great frozen treat. They are like a sweet banana flavored ice pop. Peel the fruit first and put them in plastic baggies, and they will be fine. I do not even eat fresh bananas anymore.
I do the same mash on toast eat frozen in summer put on cereal chop
No more throw away when too ripe or black
I liked how you re-capped everything at the end. Astonishing is the only word that comes to mind when you make your first batch of "ice cream" just from frozen bananas! What a great surprise!
Aww thank you for your kind words! Yes banana 🍌 ice cream is amazing and so low in calories.
This is easier: When bananas are ripe and ready to eat peel them, put in baggies, put in freezer. Then have banana popsicle.
I love this tip. Thanks so much for sharing. My daughter adores frozen banana.
My entire life, I've bought bananas with as large a nub as I can find connecting them - and as long as I'm careful to preserve the most of that nub as I can as I take each one off, the rest remaining connected take longer to ripen than they do when apart. Only other secret is not buying more bananas than I can reasonably consume, generally at the rate of one per day at most.
That's really interesting. I didn't know that. Thanks so much for sharing. I used to eat about 10 Bananas a day. Now I have about 2 but my family also eat them.
You're asking me to plan my whole life around banana storage.
BTW, my favorite way is to leave them out until they are desired ripeness. I use a hook to reduce bed sores. Then I usually either use them immediately or freeze them for later. When used for cooking, frozen banana can store virtually forever.
If you put the stalk end of bananas in a small amount of water they will last much longer.
I've not heard that before. Thank you! Have you tried it? I've tried it with green onions and they grow very quickly.
Thanks for the information
I'm using the BLUE APPLE PRODUCT and only working for about 6-7 days but with the information that I have received from you
I realized what I was doing wrong
Your Info Sounds like a winner
I learned how to allow bananas to ripen at different times. The process of wrapping plastic on the tops of the bananas and putting them in different rooms etc . The video was very informative. I hope I win too!
Storing bananas in open air attracts bugs and can smell. Instead of a paper bag I use a cardboard Oatmeal jar. You can store them upright so there’s no bruising. They won’t attract bugs or fill the house with essence of banana.
When ripened enough, in that same container, you can them store them in the fridge for up to 5 days in my experience…
That's a great tip thank you. I tend to find the flies only come when the bananas are overripe.
@@shreddersconnect - That’s true but, if there are other FF anywhere nearby they will zero in on the ripening fruit. It seems like bananas have FF eggs that hatch when they ripen and the FF just appear at ripening.
Wet a paper towel moderately,wrap around banana, place in fridge and they will be good for 2 weeks, sometimes longer. Ive kept some for 3 weeks. You do this, you can buy 15-20 at a time! Facts! Hace a great day!
Hi,
"Happy Thanksgiving Day"!
Thanks for the valuable information you provided for protection, saving the bananas for quality and healthy foods consumption and also for saving money on wastage of foods and making it available to more people instead of throwing them in the garbage bins.
Finally, protecting the environment.
Thanks a lot!
You're very welcome! Thanks for persevering through my long video. Hoping my new videos will be better
Country song
Thank you. This video explains more about the ripening of bananas than I have ever heard before. Hopefully I'll be able to use these guidelines to my advantage.
One simple tip and it doesn't involve having to use plastic wrap at all. Simply separate all the banana's and wash them as they are coated with a ripening agent. Just leave them in a bowl in a shaded area of the room after washing & drying and they will last much longer.
Nice to learn about controlling the ripening of bananas. Thank you!
You're very welcome. Have a great day!
Please excuse the background music and slow start. It was one of my first attempts at a UA-cam video and I've learned a lot since then. Some people find this video very offensive. I'm now making weekly videos on this channel, and much more content to come including full recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, how to lose weight on a vegan diet etc. lots more exciting stuff is scheduled. Please check out my latest video and let me know if you prefer the editing in that one: ua-cam.com/video/eV5eFb3TcAA/v-deo.html
If you find yourself with an excess of bananas try this Secret Bedtime Drink for PERFECT SLEEP: ua-cam.com/video/tvOi68lyInU/v-deo.html
And if you want to know why I quit a raw food diet and where I've been, my latest video will explain that: ua-cam.com/video/HJ0oKJdT0PY/v-deo.html
Excellent video and you are correct, for those of us that have hearing problems (there are millions) the music in videos affect our listening abilities! Thank You & God Bless!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're wonderful. Loved it! 🍌
@@briandawson3167 Thank you. I also have trouble hearing so I do understand.
@@BobMinelli Aww thank you. You are so kind, have a fantastic week!
@C.M Phen ?
Preserve bananas just ripe not too Ripe peel put in bags in freezer use for smoothies chop on cereal mesh on toast eat half frozen in Sumer use on cakes
Yes I do this too!
Smart girl with a lot of common sense.
Thank you for sharing.
Aww thanks so much! Have a fantastic weekend 😀
Awwwww, man. Throwing out all my banana today. Hope to watch later so I can start over
I eat a banana every morning .Sometimes i would eat two because they would ripened much to rapidly. Thank you for such good and helpful information.
Fantastic, so healthy! You're so welcome. Happy Christmas!
Best way to store bunch of bananas is to hang them where there is good circulation of air. Once they are ripe and skin is dark you can store them in the frig bottom draw and the inside of the banana will not get rotten.
Great tips thank you!
..whew!.made it through the video!. almost drove me bananas!.🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣 Hopefully my latest video is better? I'm trying to improve now.
Boy, you sure did get a lot of grief for your video. For Pete's sake, I didn't even notice the music. I went back to listen after people complained and wow, some folks sure are sensitive to barely audible background music. If music is your thing, listen to music videos. Your accent is fine. Some people want everyone in the world to speak" un-accented" English. What is that anyway? There is no such thing. Every English-speaking country has different accents within the country. Length-wise? Not too bad. It could be a bit shorter but it isn't "distressing." I found it interesting, although I was aware of most of your suggestions. Anyway - CHILL PEOPLE.
Aww thank you for your kind words. I'm having a lot of laughs reading the comments. This video is 4 years old and my first attempt at UA-cam videos. I've started a different channel and learned a lot since then. Now I'm back on here and creating weekly content again. UA-cam decided to send this old video viral this week which is fun. Have a great day 😀
I agree, what a brutal audience. The world has gone down the toilet! All these viewers who took time out of their life to criticise your video, I’m embarrassed at such bad behaviour but have grown to accept that humans are the most destructive living beings. You keep doing your videos how you want, those viewers who want a shorter banana video can go sit and spin or better yet, they should go make a video because society has forgotten manners and they might find an audience doesn’t like how their voice sounds or how they present. Your video was fine, nobody forced them to watch 😂
I liked the idea of storing and saving the bananas in over roping thanks a lot and God bless
I appreciate this video because I’m slowly trying to change my lifestyle and anything to improve and help me to save time and money is awesome. Thank You. ❤🎉
I learned so much from your video. I love bananas & eat one every day. I especially liked your advice to separate the bananas and wrap the ends & put them in a cooler room to ripen more slowly. I will begin doing that immediately. Thank you.
i grow many fruits (strawberries blackberries,plums,apricots,peaches cherries) and eat them each day. since i must freeze them would it be true that by quickly thawing these sliced up fruits in a hot bowl of amarath would help maintain nutrients . also would making fruit wine preserve nutrients.
Wrap top of stalk with tape or wrap.
Love this tip. Thanks so much!
It's so nice to learn about storing fruits
I make banana cake or bread. Never waste. Also I freeze them for banana ice cream. My family loves it.
For kids, cut bananas in half, peel, and stick a stick into the cut end. Freeze and use as healthy popsicles.
Great tip! I will have to try this with my son who doesn't like bananas, but freezing bananas makes them taste like ice cream so it's worth a go!
The fridge they last a very long time, if green let them ripe after a 2/3 days on counter then in fridge . Thanks for sharing ur fruit properly storage
You're welcome! Have a great day!
Put bananas in the fridge is ok, but, they need to be wrapped in a few layers of newspaper. I've done this all my life and it keeps them fresh.
When setting your bananas on counter always put them on
the stems it keeps those lines off on the back .
Thank you so much for the banana tips! This will be very helpful!
You're very welcome. Happy Easter!
I put them in a plastic bag and put them in a bottom crisper ..always stay fresh
Great tip, thanks for sharing!
I get about 6 bananas at a time, a little green if I can find them, and small ones. Put them in a plastic bag and in the bottom drawer. They last very well mostly. I learned this from an older lady. Before that I believed what Chikita Banana said "Never never put bananas - in the refrigerator - No no no no!" Don't believe her. It works very well.
9:45 a summary of everything!
Thanks for helping. :)
Excellent advice & instructions. Thank you. What is the enzymatic process for ripening rates: temperature, light, humidity & vapors from adjacent and other fruit in close proximity or impervious enclosure?
the background music you use is horrid, doesn't enhance the subject. Better with NO music. I'm a video producer.
Great feedback thank you. My latest videos won't have any background music when I'm talking. I agree with you.
@@shreddersconnect
A good way to preserve your bananas is to place a wet cloth overnight. This will stop them from getting ripe too quickly.
Love the channel and how you approach it. Thank you.
Can you do vegetables? Like, how to include veggies in your diet if you meal prep, and are otherwise busy with work?
Thank you, love the suggestion. I'm back creating weekly content now and am busy editing some veg based recipe. I love quick recipes as I'm a busy mum of 2.
@@shreddersconnect Genuine THANK YOU! I've always felt guilty not eating veggies (except in pre-made soups), but I'm willing to do the dirty work every Sunday if I know precisely what I need, and how to keep fruits/veggies fresh for that week.
Looking forward to the videos!!!
Store your bananas in Debbie Meyer Green Bags. In the fridge. They last a week or two.
I have those too and the boxes. They are great.
Straight away. Def British. Welsh? Or New Zealander?
👍👍👍 very good. So informative. Tq so much dear Katherine. Gbless🙏💕
Thank you so much!
Loose the music. What you have to say is really important, background music is distracting and annoying.
Thanks so much for the feedback. I have taken this on board. Is my latest video better?
Thanks so much I learnt a lot about how to treat bananas so inspiring thanks again
Fantastic thanks so much for sharing that. Have a great day!
That banana ice cream looks good!
Thank you, it tastes so sweet and doesn't taste much like bananas, more like ice cream.
Bananas are LOADED with sugar - solution buy them when they are green and put in the refrigerator - lower sugar levels- might need to slice the peel length wise to extract the fruit
Thanks a bunch for this video - I will certainly be trying out your tips right away ! Cheers !
Thank you for sharing valuable helpful TIPS. Informative.
Thank you so much. Have a great day!
Fun fact...When I harvest bananas in central Florida, it takes roughly three weeks before they're ripe. Oh, and it's in the high 80s this afternoon.
And now here's Trudy with the sports...
Oh, and they taste just like any other store bought one.
The banana, that is. Not the sport. I don't know what that tastes like.
I always buy bananas green & put them in the refrigerator.
I just heard someone else say that their green bananas take 1 month to ripen in the fridge.
Even my husband thinks this is torture. I just want to know what you think is the best way to store bananas. How far do I have to go to get that information?
Oh dear. Sorry it had such a bad effect on you. This video is old and I'm improving my videos now. Can you check out my latest video to see if that's any better?
I learn alot about fruits thank upu I am happy I found you
Thanks so much for your lovely comment. Have a fantastic day!
Thanks for the video ❤❤
Thanks so much. Have a lovely day!
Great tips!🙏🏻
Starts at 2:29.
Thank you. Very helpful. I'm trying to improve my latest videos. Is my most recent video better?
Got it. Fruit bowls bad.
I love fruits! Thanks!
Most people peel bananas from the wrong end. Watch how a monkey does it.
Love Laura
And that proves that we couldn't have come from monkeys. LOL
A great channel, very interesting and informative.Thank you and we'll done.i shall be watching from now on.
Thanks so much. I really appreciate that. Have a lovely weekend!
Fruits are so great.
This channel just popped up. Looks interesting. Love your ideas going to check out more of your videos. Never heard of the banana bungee cord etc.... looked for it on your extras never found it..
Thanks so much. I actually created this channel 4 years ago when I was a raw foodist, but I quit eating only fruit and stopped posting to the channel. Lately I have decided to post my cooked food even though my name is Magical Life Of Fruit because I still do eat and love fruit. So I'm back to creating weekly content now and UA-cam decided to send one of my old videos viral. I'm hoping my new content will be better. Thanks for your support! Sorry you couldn't find a link to the banana bungee cord. I can't find it myself either now sorry.
@@shreddersconnect No problem. Appreciate your hard work. Look forward to watching your other content. God Bless you & your family.
I freeze my bananas once they are too ripe to enjoy. Peel them, freeze them and use for smoothies and banana bread
Me too. I'm going to start making more nice cream now the weather is getting warmer here.
Hi can i store in airtight container
Thank you for the banana tips. I am convinced they are not worth buying. Good buy bananas.
Very helpful. Thank you.
You're very welcome! Thank you for your encouraging feedback. Have a fantastic day!
Too long, too complicated. Edit your videos.
Thanks for the feedback. I agree. This is an old video and I've improved a lot since then, and definitely going to make the new videos easier to follow.
You’re wrong. She does a good job.
I buy green bananas and they go straight in the fridge.
Lol
@@lpetitoiseau9146 you say bill newman is wrong despite magical life of fruit agreeing with him! That makes him and the video producer both wrong. DUH!
What's A Gadget?
I was just talking about general gadgets, but this is a mango slicer tool.
First she says don't refrigerate bananas, then later suggests refrigerating them.
I've never understood this 'don't refrigerate bananas' nonsense. I've always refrigerated them like I would any other food. It'll slow ripening, or keep them ripe longer, whichever you want.
Just try it.
Refrigerating bananas slows down the ripening, so if you want them to ripen faster, don't refrigerate, if you want to slow it down, do. Different reasons for and against depending on your goals.
Just say it right away! No reason for theatrics! Thx!
When you say theatrics, what are you referring to? My costume? Or taking too long to get to the point? It will help with future videos.
No stores shelve bananas properly these days. Bananas will bruise less if you store them curve up, resulting in their weight only on their 2 ends. I was taught this in the 50's in a grocery store as a boy.
Thanks for the information
I bring them home and store in bunch in frig. They last more than a week. Even when the skins look ugly, the insides are fine.
starts at 9:45
The summary does.
Please get baby Bananas/burro bananas, the store bananas are genetically modified!!☯️
Interesting. We only have one type of banana here in the UK and I can't remember what type it is now.
I'm going bananas after watching this video.
Haha!
I'll make sure to check the weather before i buy bananas!
😆😆😆 true but sounds very silly when I look back on that tip.
I always store my fruits and veggies in my roommates bedroom and in her bathroom so I have a reason to barge in unexpectedly when she's changing or getting into the shower.
Great infor I lose this fruit every month
Thank you, so glad this has helped!

Subscribed. I suggest using the random name picker at Gigacalculator and record the drawing for 100% transparency.. 🙂
Which drawing?
What does it matter? You get a bunch of bananas green. The first banana gets ripe the next day. You eat it. The second is over ripe the next day. The third is black the day after. The fourth is dead, dead, dead. The fifth is absolutely rotten. You have managed to eat two bananas. Maybe three…All the others are dumped into the trash!
At the point where your bananas are ripe, put them in the fridge and they'll last a lot longer.
Thanks I am impressed.
Very interesting and informative.
Thank you. Have a fantastic day!
Thank you, Banana Queen! ♥ 🍌
You're welcome! Have a fantastic day!
No when the get bad, i peel put them in the freezer and keep for banana bread 😊
Very useful 👌. Thank you 😊
Thank you! Have a fantastic day!
At the store is it legal to break off a few bananas from the bunch or do you have to buy the whole bunch?
I guess it depends where you live. I live in the UK and supermarkets are fine with you breaking bananas off the bunch. If they are priced by the bunch they are always wrapped in plastic here.
Explain what you are going to tell them, tell them and then explain what you have told them. Must be a primary school teacher!😂
