Making Bananas Last Longer

I recently learned that you can make a bunch of bananas last longer but separating them after you buy them. After I buy them, I break them off the bunch and place them all in a bowl on the kitchen counter. It seems to work...they won't last for a month or anything like that but they don't seem to brown as quickly. That's what works for me!

  2. ooh..thanks! Am going to try that! I have also heard about people buying individual bananas (a few ripe yellow, a few slightly green, and a few green) instead of a bunch to make them last longer.

  5. I buy them just like 3XMom mentioned - a few yellow, a few green. I also like your tip, and I'll be trying it today!

  6. Really? I'll have to try this. My 1 1/2 year old daughter likes bananas (and so do I), but they always get brown before we can eat them!
