I, as well, store fruit in the fridge because of fruit flies.
But man I hate cold fruit :(
Comment on what is the best fruit to leave in a fridge?

All of them.
I might be weird, but in my opinion, there is not a single fruit that does not last longer or taste better when it is stored in the fridge.
Also keeps away those pesky fruit flies.

Generally correct, however there are exceptions. Bananas are absolutely wrecked in the fridge

Fun fact, pineapples do not ripen after they have been picked. They will begin to rot which is why they start to soften up on the counter:

Funny, I find Bananas benefit the most by being stored in the fridge.
Yes, the peel gets greyish eventually but the inside stays good to eat for much longer.
Oh well, to each their own I guess.

I mean yeah you can still eat the bananas, and it’s not necessarily a bad thing to have them under ripened as you do end up with a different range of nutrients. I just don’t think as general practice, most people are going to get the best experience if they refrigerate them. Maybe it’s just a bananas I get in my region but I’ve never been able to successfully refrigerate a banana and have it be as good as just left out to ripen naturally

Don’t put them in until they are ripe. Once they are the right level of ripeness for you, you can extend them being in that state for several days by putting them in the fridge.

I put it in the fridge to keep from overripening. Rarely buy underripe bananas.

Yeah, would be more interesting to list the outliers that aren’t better in the fridge.

Yeah I thought that too but it turns out only the outside turned shitty
