I’m pretty sure that’s a stock image so I don’t think that’s a pic of anyone’s legit fridge.
But to answer your question, you can keep bananas on the counter until they reach your preferred level of ripeness and then put them in the fridge to slow down the ripening process so you have a few more days to eat them before they turn to complete mush. I do it all time to ensure I always have bananas around at my preferred level of ripeness.
Yes the outside goes brown, but the inside slows down it’s ripening process. Eventually they will all go to mush, but you can keep them at peak ripeness for a few days longer by putting them in the fridge.
Then again most people won’t eat a banana if it has a single brown spot on it, so I’m probably wasting my breath by telling people they can prevent food waste by eating discolored but perfectly ripe food.
Here’s a pic of some washed eggs in a refrigerator to scare the Europeans.
Bonus:
Microwaved water for tea.
What kind of monster stores bananas in the fridge?
Bananas in the US get washed and lose their protective coating so it’s fairly normal to see them in the fridge in US homes.
I’ve never put mine in the fridge in all my decades as an American lol
Way to humble brag about your imported European bananas that don’t require refrigeration.
(It was a joke btw lol)
Yo why are you keeping bananas in the fridge?

They brown more in the fridge. If anything cold speeds up the banana going gross.
Avocados work the way you say. I wouldn’t do it to a banana
