			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I noticed something interesting in my <a href="http://www.foodconnect.com.au/">Food Connect</a> box the other night.</p>

<p>A bunch of bananas at a mixed stage of ripeness. I had heard that one way to accelerate the ripening of bananas is to put them close to other fruit, such as apples or oranges. However, this doesn&#8217;t seem to explain what is going on here, as it was the <i>green</i> bananas that were closest to the apples/citrus in the box.</p>

<p>Does anyone know what might be going on?</p>
