    I love the ripe ones. I hate the grainy feel in my mouth of the
    "almost" ripe ones. I want some brown spots on them, makes the flavor come out and show itself.

    The ripe ones are a little too realistic for me, I like the yellow ones that are brighter and more fun looking.

    I like the yellow ones; personally I prefer my bananas with a little green, but very ripe makes me think of the disgusting banana bread my mother used to make. She waited till the bananas were practically black before she used them, so the bread tasted rotten. Can't stand banana bread to this day.
    Bless your heart. Ha! Sorry but that made me laugh! :-D

    I think the yellow ones are "cleaner". I don't like the darker one at all.

    The riper ones look real. The fresher ones are pretty. I opt for the riper ones though. Better hurry up and use them though. They are only going to last a couple of days at best! hehehe!
