How to Pick:
Bananas that are yellow and lightly flecked with brown spots will be at their peak flavor. Bananas should be plump, firm, and brightly colored.

Store bananas at room temperature, where they will continue to ripen. If you refrigerate your bananas, they will stop ripening, but this will also make the skins go black. The fruit is still okay to eat, but will not be the best quality.
Where it's Grown:
Australian Red Tip Bananas are grown in Far North Queensland, near Innisfail.
