What's the trick to ripening green bananas at home?


I think I'm done with Costco green bananas for the same reason. Over a week and they're still green and firm. I tried to peel one with a knife and it won't even peel properly. Took a bite and spit it out. Tastes nothing like a banana. This isn't the first time but is likely the last.



Ever try putting term in a brown paper bag with a few tomatoes???
Tomatoes produce rthelene gas which is used in force-repening fruits.
