A banana does not like it in the refrigerator - understandably so.
From the time it starts out as a small plant, it is used to tropical 
sun. Its peel turns spotty and brown. Its flavour disappears. How can
this happen? In entertaining weekly episodes our Chemical Reporter 
answers questions on Chemistry in our everyday life.
