We feel terrible every time we need to throw out produce that’s gone rotten before we got the chance to eat it. Bananas, for instance, can be super tricky — especially as they come in bunches (a.k.a. “hands”) and can go from green to yellow to brown within just a few days.Bananas don’t always like to ripen when we’re ready for them — or too many of them ripen at once and we can’t get through them all before they go bad.

There are solutions to keeping your bananas fresh for longer though! Our favorite comes in the form of an adorable crochet and silicone “hat”!The Nana Hats Banana Preserver is a simple but ingenious (and totally cute) way of keeping your bananas ripe until you’re ready to eat them.

They’re BPA-free silicone caps that slip over the stems of your bunched bananas to firmly hold them together — but they have magnets on top so you can add on one of the interchangeable crochet caps!
