Hey guys, it's Adventure Van here with a blog about the ripening effects of bananas on other fruits. This effect is caused not only by bananas, but by kiwis, but more people have bananas in their house so it's a much more common effect. Bananas produce ethylene, which all fruits have a level of receiving. Ethylene causes fruits that contact it to ripen more, and flowers nearby to wilt. However, the ripening effect also causes the fruit to go bad faster, meaning it's commonly used as a composting ingredient as well as a way for stores to make their products much more fresh than they are at arrival. It's a completely natural process that has been commercialized into product use.
Adventure Van, signing out.
