Bananas are a popular fruit, yet they can often deteriorate quickly after purchase.

This often results in consumers throwing away perfectly edible fruit.
Tesco's Advice for Shoppers

- Storage tips: Store bananas away from other fruits to minimize ethylene exposure.
- Use them wisely: Plan meals that incorporate bananas to ensure they are consumed in time.
