When you buy bananas, break them apart into individual bananas instead of leaving them in the bunch.

Why YSK: The stem of the bunch is the main culprit for releasing ethylene gas, which is basically a ripening accelerator. By separating them, you significantly slow down this process. This means your bananas will stay yellow and edible for far longer, saving you from having to eat a dozen bananas in two days or, more likely, throwing them out. No more premature browning, unless you’re specifically aiming for banana bread. Your fruit bowl (and wallet) will thank you.

    You need to wipe it in honey first, and cover the honey in cinnamon. Then take a toothpick and push it through the center of that. Then, kid you not, chocolate syrup. Put it in the freezer and it’ll last a millennium.

      I can’t tell if you are fucking with me right now. But that sounds delicious so I’m going to try it anyway.
