Some foods should not be stored next to each other. Otherwise, you can speed up their ripening, which will eventually lead to them spoiling too quickly.

Nutritionist Elena Solomatina spoke about this in more detail, NEWS.ru reports.

The specialist noted that oranges and apples should not be kept in the same basket.

Even if they are not close to each other, but lie at a short distance, the processes of maturation and then rotting are triggered.

You should also avoid leaving apples and bananas next to each other or other fruits.

The thing is that such fruits contain ethylene, which accelerates the ripening of other vegetables and fruits.

If you want to speed up ripening, then bananas or apples are placed next to some product, for example, avocado.

If you want to save bananas from overripening, it is better to put them in the refrigerator.

You can wrap them in foil or cling film beforehand.
