Japanese Farmers Create Banana With Edible Peel
According to National Geographic, scientists at D&T Farm in Japan's Okayama Prefecture announced their most recent development of a banana with some properties that have made it a viral story. They successfully grew a banana fruit with a peel that people can eat. It took months of experimenting with a freezing-and-thawing method, which keeps the banana tree at extremely cold temperatures of -60 degrees Celsius followed by a dramatic heat increase to around 26 degrees. The result is soft and thin skin that hasn't fully developed.
The scientists' method mimics plant growth during ice ages or other long freezes. Cold temperatures slow plants metabolism; a sudden burst of sun and heat tends to lead to dramatic growth. In the banana's case, the fruit-which holds the seed-matures before the skin can catch up.
