Ask if they've got some in the back that haven't been ripened as they probably want to stagger their stock and ripe bananas have a limited shelf life... If you want to try this. There's not much difference in taste between an unripe banana and a plantain esp if the banana is very unripe.

I work in a supermarket ;)
You do see the slightly unripe ones but not often the really green. But I don;t really like Banananananananas anyway, hubby is a fan I eat one every so many years unless it's mushed in cooking something ;)
Never tried Plantain.

I go through a banana craving every once in a while. It's not bad diced over oatmeal though I like crushed pineapple better.
While green they're starch flavored with the barest bit of banana. Could see it in goulash as a potato sub since there's lots of cumin and chili powder to it to disguise that hint.

You're not convincing me!
Tried them fresh in Jamaica, those were nice.
