Default Dwarf Cavendish fruit with a “core”

Back in 2012, I purchased my first bananas - three dwarf cavendish (basically for aesthetics/ landscaping purposes). The plants (I assume they were tissue cultures as they were from Santa Ana Gardens) have performed exceptionally well, but I have noticed that the fruit always has an stemlike central “core” (a really tough fibrous section that runs the length of the fruit). Is this normal for Cavendish?

Unfortunately, this is one of the few times we don’t currently have any fruit or I would attach photos. I am hoping that someone will recognize what I am trying to describe.

Thank you so much in advance!
