Apples and Tomatoes

I put an apple in with my not quite ripe tomatoes to help speed them up. But then I googled the process. Tomatoes give off their own ethylene, as do apples and bananas. But apples keep better in the refrigerator, while tomatoes and bananas ripen best in the warmth of a room. So better to put a banana in with the tomatoes. Although not even necessary. More than you likely wanted to know.
