Date: July 11, 2007 01:58AM Hi,
Is it OK to eat overripe bananas? (I mean bananas with some brown flesh not with jet black flesh). these bananas are usually cheaper 
Also, can anyone tell me when burro bananas, red bananas, and plantains are ripe? Thanks Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 07/11/2007 02:06AM by frutarian_nav. Re: Is it ok to eat overripe bananas?

If they have been left out to ripen, you can eat them up to any point that they are not fermenting, some fermentation is probably ok. Best is when they are fully speckled, and have no hint of starchy taste. red bananas never ripen just right (for me). definitely should be very soft and sweet plantains I guess can be eaten when they are black and converted most of the starches to sugar. Not my first choice of food. I would think they would be more of a novelty. Re: Is it ok to eat overripe bananas?

Date: July 11, 2007 04:08AM If they get that alcohol-tinged flavor, I throw them out, because they make me feel unbalanced (plus the taste is gross). But I love them good and speckled, really sweet and soft. If I have too many ripe ones, I cut them into little pieces and freeze them in containers in the freezer for a treat. Sharrhan:
