  • Keeping the other fruit apart: Keep bananas away from other fruits to prevent them from maturing each other, especially fruits such as apples and tomatoes, which are also high-ethylene producers.
  • Use a banana bag: If you have a lot of bananas, consider investing in a banana bag, a specially designed storage bag that keeps bananas fresh for longer by regulating the ethylene gas and moisture around the fruit.

Enjoy your bananas longer

With this simple trick of wrapping the stems in food film, you will find that your bananas stay fresh for several days longer than usual. This means more time to taste them in your cereal, make smoothies or bake your favorite banana bread. So, the next time you buy a bouquet, remember that trick and enjoy your bananas at the right level of maturity for the days ahead.
