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

I like them still greenish.

We're on the other ends.

WIZARD POPE💫

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

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.

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

i can also halt aging in apples by eating them

Potatoes: sprouting

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.

Hmm. I've always thought that bananas released the most ethylene; and that they can be used to ripen other fruit (or ripen themselves faster if you put them in a bag or something). ... But this seems to suggest it is apples that should be used for that - unless there's a significant difference between 'produced' and 'released'.

In any case, I guess it's something I might revisit and reassess.

Is that supposed to be the cytokine, or the gas dichlorocarbene?

Whoops, should have been https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Methylcyclopropene it blocks ethylene receptors that a bunch of plants use for regulating ripening and responding to stress conditions like drought, flooding, high salt, etc.

Potatos are terrifying. Now I don't feel bad about eating so many fries.

Your mom is so sweet, you can compare her to a fruit salad.
