Frozen Fruit?

[Guest guest]

Yes, I experience similarly, I really only " enjoy " eating those refrigerated

and frozen bananas in some altered, processed state. And yes, this signals

our sensory awareness that we are no longer eating an ideal food for us.

 

I also share the same about buying bananas, at times, and I've found that

I'm much happier when I buy more frequently, in smaller quantities.

 

Part of the problem we experience with refrigerating and freezing arises

simply because we may tend to wait " until the last moment " before putting

the bananas into the cooler in the first place. Hope does seem to spring

eternal among us humans!! :)

 

Best,

Although I'll put bananas in the fridge or freezer if they start getting too

ripe, I'll only use them for banana whips (ice cream) or smoothies or

something where they're in a different form than I would normally eat them.

I find that they taste different even after just being in the refrigerator,

and I don't like the taste, by themselves, so I'll use them for those

things. I don't know if this has anything to do with much damage to the

fruit, being only in the refrigerator, but they definitely taste different,

not nearly as good, even when allowed to reach room temperature. I can't

buy bananas by the case for this reason, because they ripen faster than I

can eat them all I need someone to help me eat them

Still, I've often seen bananas turn colors in the freezer and come out

tasting quite different than when they went in, a clear sign of damage.

Much has to do with how the bananas are packaged going into the freezer, the

temperature and crowding in the freezer, and the ripeness of the bananas

before freezing.
