Aging

[name_null111653@pawb.social]

Just starting to brown / sparse brown specks is absolutely perfect. Not too soft that they become slimy, but peak sweetness

This is like comparing apples and oranges.

I like them when there's barely any yellow left. Not totally brown, but the comic I'd let go another day.

[theimpressivex@lemm.ee]

No, it's comparing apples and bananas.

[merde@sh.itjust.works]

wait till you hear about bananas and tomatoes!

[darkcloud@lemmy.world]

That apple is black and dusty inside by now. Next stage, slow shrivelling.

Green bananas > life

[queermunist@lemmy.ml]

Tastes like how cut grass smells. BLEH

We can pretty much halt aging in apples using a gas made of this stuff

In my experience that banana is what ripens all other fruit that is remotely near it. That apple hasn’t got much time left before it suddenly is rotten

[user224@lemmy.sdf.org]

I like them still greenish.

We're on the other ends.

[wizard_pope@lemmy.world]

You asked him to fight you. I also agree bananas that are still slightly green are the best. Love my banans firm.

[kautau@lemmy.world]

Which is funny because apples produce more ethylene gas, but they don’t react as intensely as bananas, which just rapidly decay

Just a moment...

You must be several fruits short of a salad, it's clearly it's comparing bananas and apples.

[maccentric@sh.itjust.works]

When I was young, I preferred them brown (I’d give them a few squeezes to help them along the way).
Now I prefer them greenish, not waxy but just after that point

[affiliate@lemmy.world]

i can also halt aging in apples by eating them

[theangryseal@lemmy.world]

Ur the fruit salad! And ur mom…

Potatoes: sprouting

[monkdervierte@lemmy.ml]

Limited to the (dry, floury) breeds for juice in my experience. And that one that looks like an apple made for eating but acts like the floury sort.
