This sad state of bananas in excessive heat – awareness can save!
Currently, not only people, but also fruits are facing damage due to intense heat in different parts of the country. Especially soft and sensitive fruits like bananas ripen quickly in excessive heat and start to spoil. As can be seen in the picture above, the bananas are already ripe, the peel is cracking, and black spots have appeared—which is clearly the effect of excessive heat.
Why does this happen?
Effect of temperature:
Although bananas are a tropical fruit, they ripen quickly in excessive sunlight and heat. As a result, the peel cracks and the inside is also spoiled.Lack of humidity:
In summer, the air becomes dry, due to which the moisture content of the fruit decreases rapidly. Due to this, the banana skin shrinks and cracks.Lack of proper storage:
This condition is inevitable if bananas are kept in the open sun or in a hot room during the summer instead of hanging them in a cool, shaded place.
Things to do:
Bananas should be hung in a cool, shaded place.
If you want, you can wrap the bananas in paper so that the air does not directly touch them.
It is better not to keep bananas in the refrigerator in excessive heat, but to choose a cool place at room temperature.
Conclusion:
We need to be more conscious in preserving fruits during the summer. A little care can preserve the nutrition and beauty of the fruit. Otherwise, not only will the fruit be spoiled, but there will also be financial loss.
Be careful, save the fruits! 🍌☀️
