this is too much fun.
Today must be stupid question day:
Why does the flesh of a banana with peel not go brown when I leave it out in my fruit bowl? Why does an apple not brown inside its own skin?
Because both apples and bananas brown in approximately .03 seconds after being peeled/bitten into. Is it contact with the air? It can't be temperature since they brown in the fridge too.
What is the chemical process that causes them to turn brown?
I never knew that I wondered about any of this stuff before right at this very moment.
