Love em Green

I have never gotten gross brown spotting, bananas I love that they are always green or yellow and absolutely delicious!! They are always firm and if you need them to ripen faster, put them next to apples or onions or already ripe bananas. Alternatively, you can put them in a brown paper bag or near some cardboard.!!

Amazing value, delicious bananas!

The bananas at Sam's are so cheap! I usually grab 2 bunches each shopping trip because we go through them so fast. I feel like these last at least week on the counter but I do try to get ones that are more green so they last longer. Great size and flavor. Yum!

These Dole Brand Bananas Go Bad in 2 Days

I buy these sometime so that I don't have to go to the grocery store, but I'm always finding myself playing Beat the Clock. You have about 2 days to eat them; otherwise, they go rotten on you. These do not have much flavor at all. Better to buy them at HEB where theirs have a good flavor, and they do not go to waste like this Dole Brand that Sam's Club carries.

Only if you're eating them all today

I am sure it's a storage issue with Sam's, but every time I buy bananas there they are covered with brown spots the very next day. I only buy them green, as we like them just as they begin to yellow. Sam's bananas go from green directly to brown, never yellow. It does not happen when I buy from other stores, so I'm guessing it's how they store them. They do have a great price, but they all go to bread and can't be eaten.

Thanks!

As a local small business owner with limited storage space & high volume product, it is certainly nice & reassuring to have the Sams Club team put in the extra effort in assisting me with my order. Love the app, the email notifications & the great customer service that management provides. Keep up the great work! Steve

Good bananas but...

These are great if you don't care if they're organic or not I see people complain but that you make no sense organic bananas are much better healthier even if they're green people who complain that they're green or clueless didn't even give the bananas a shot they should have tried them before they started whining about it bananas do not need to be yellow in order for them to be ready to eat if you wait till they're yellow they're super sweet and you just have to make ice cream out of them.

Doubtful

It's been three days and my bananas haven't ripened. It looks like they have freezer damage. I would think you would get that in the wintertime, but it is June. I don't think they will. It seems useless. Maybe, they picked them really green and rely on gas. Food labeling laws don't require them to tell us anything or the store clerks. You pay more for a health food store, but the Clerks there have answers about your food.

Cheap but still a waste of money

We stopped buying the organic bananas from Sam's because they refuse to ripen. They will literally turn brown and still be hard, chalky and gross. We didn't give up after a couple times either. We stupidly bought them twice a month for around 2 years. At first it was about 1/6 times they'd be bad. Then it progressed to becoming nearly every time we'd buy them. We had enough after we had a batch make zero ripening results after 3 straight weeks.

I'm bananas for bananas

This is not so. I do not like bananas. But I do add them into our nutritional shakes that I make for my husband and I every morning. These are a great value and I buy them every week. I do go to a produce market weekly but I always pick these and a few other staples from the produce area at Sam's due to their quality and value.

Great for instore, mushy bruised mess pickup!

Cant go wrong for in-store! But for pickup, a fellow gots to wonder if the shopper bowled them down the hall a few times to insure every single last one was bruised and would turn spoil! No joke whats up with ever single last one mushy and bruised? Come on Sams! In my day we prized our self with perfect bananas from Hawaii. See they are all shipped green, and almost impossible to bruise. So the fact they are all bruised on backside is from angry handlers and people throwing boxes who stock them on Sams shelves. No reason to get bananas that looked like they fell off delivery truck on freeway when they ripen.
