The Fruit With Mood Swings

Riddle:

I change colors three times. Green makes you grimace, brown makes you gag, but yellow makes you grin. What am I?

Answer:

A banana — Bananas are green (unripe), yellow (perfect), and brown (overripe). The riddle uses emotions tied to stages of ripeness to build poetic rhythm and mislead the answer.
