This is a picture of our final results - after 7 days of testing:
We had the following bananas:
B - darkened box
C - Control (left on the counter)
F - Kept in a glass of sugar/water - cutting the stem daily)
Fr - Fridge
Fz - Freezer
O - Oven (170F for 8 hrs / day)
W - Kept in a glass of water - cutting the stem daily)
Z - Kept in a vacuum - ziploc bag
You can see that the Ziploc banana looks phenomenal. Interestingly, it tasted only as good as the Control banana...we are going to move to a second round of tests.
