Especially with the Awak types, the flavor changes hugely with ripeness. When I eat them at the same stage as I would a Cavendish (yellow with maybe a hint of green), to my tastes they are pretty poor. When you let them get riper, no green and some black on the peel, they get really sweet and have a nice creamy texture. I think the average person who is used to eating Cavendish bought at the grocery store would not be impressed with the Pisang Awak types because they'd eat them before they got ripe enough.
That's been my experience too. They really need to ripen!
