How can I tell if a banana is ripe?

You can tell if a banana is ripe by checking for a few things. Look for the skin to be yellow with some brown spots, with no green left on the banana. You can also check for the texture of the banana to see if it yields to gentle pressure. Additionally, smell the stem end of the banana for a sweet fragrance, as this is a good indicator that the banana is ripe and ready to eat.
