RE: Bananas- how do you know they're ripe enough

It should be brown spotted or more than that.. look like a cow. When you peel it, the banana inside should be soft and you should be able to mash it by hand easily. I'll take a pic of one once mine get ripe.-UC - 1+ yearsSCD - 8 months 100% strict and 4 months restricted diet.Asacol - 12 pills a day Prednisone 40mg entocort With vit E mixed inBack to intro/stage 1 for now.To: BTVC-SCD From: fossil.color@...Date: Tue, 23 Mar 2010 20:39:01 +0000Subject: Bananas- how do you know they're ripe enough

What is the gauge for knowing when a banana is ripe enough. I've read there is no green on the banana and it has to have brown spots, but how many? I'm probably being paranoid, but I don't know if the bananas I've been eating are ripe enough. Does anyone perhaps have a picture of a ripe enough banana?

Thanks!

yellow stem, brown and spotty, when you peel it, it's pretty and white.
