I have been freezing banans for years and use them in my smoothies. No negative effects at all for me. I also buy a case a week so that I always have ripe ones on hand but I always end up having to freeze some.

I read somewhere that freezing your food is just as bad as cooking them.  But i see a lot of raw vegans freezing their fruit so now I wonder if that's true or not.

that's what i've been wondering too, but i haven't found any info telling me this for sure. and for now i see it as it's either freezing them or throwing them all away which i would hate to do.

where did you read this info on freezing food?

I freeze bananas without any problems whatsoever.  I simply use them in smoothies.  YUMMM  Yes, it is best to eat fresh fruit picked right from the tree/off the vine, etc.  Let's be practical though. 

 

 I am anal about a lot of things - eating only organic is one - but we need to live our lives the best we can. At least you are eating fruit!  LOL

I say freeze tjem.  I would say that it does lessen the nutritional value some, but not so much that you should really worry about it.

Go to banana island! And yes, you can freeze them. It's better than to let them to get overripe.
