Skin is Green but Flesh is Ripe

Can you post about bananas whose skin is green but the flesh is ripe? They suffer from some postharvest physiological disorder, and can be seen in the supermarkets, so when I had to buy unripe bananas, I get confused in which is ripe/unripe, once I bought some green ripe banans and did a banana ripening experiment, and I thought it didn’t work. Thanks.

I can't imagine this can be common. I have never bought a banana which which had green peel - but ripe within. I'm not saying this doesn't happen, just never heard of it or experienced it. What kind of banana ripening experiment did you try?

bananas may be ripe even tho the skin is green. its called 'ripe green' type; in indon and malaysia you may come across these types

Kenya too has green-ripe bananas, and even the red bananas are though not common.
