cavendish bananas are eaten raw, used in cooking, baking, smoothies, fruit salads, fruit compotes, and to complement foods.
the outer skin is partially green when sold in food markets, and turns yellow when it ripens. as it ripens the starches turn to sugar making a sweeter fruit. when it reaches its final stage (stage 7), brownblack "sugar spots" develop. when overripe, the skin turns black and the flesh becomes mushy. bananas ripen naturally until they are picked.
once picked they no longer turn yellow on their own, and need to be gassed with ethylene gas to start ripening once again. most retailers sell bananas in stages 36, with stage 4 being the most ideal. the plus used for cavendish bananas are 4011 (yellow) and 4186 (small yellow). organic cavendish bananas are assigned plu 94011
