Is it safe to eat black smudges in an otherwise normal banana?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If the black smudge came about from the fruit becoming oxidized. You can slow down that process by squeezing fresh lemon juice on the fruit. Chefs call it the "browning reaction", not black smudging. It sounds better.
