Sure! Rub it in! I have a bunch of nectarines from my grocery store, but it takes forever for them to ripen. Sometimes they grow fuzzy things before they finish ripening.

Put them in a paper bag with an apple. The apple releases ethylene gas, which is a ripening agent.

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. They profiled a place in Ann Arbor that has over a million combinations of toppings and patties. It looked really good, but I'm not driving 45 minutes each way to get a burger. ;)

Unless it's with another Cheffer.
