Yeah, I didn't really think they looked too much like Orinocos from the outside appearance. It was only the color and texture of the flesh I thought looked similar.

You sound like me; on store-bought bananas I prefer them with a little green left on the peel. Once they start getting the little brown spots on them I can't hardly eat them. It's exactly as you said: too cloying. Ich! However, I love my Orinocos for cooking when green or just eating when they are fully ripe. To me they taste great then.
