Second photo is natural lighting.

I'm not sure what you're asking, but it looks like you mixed up your images.

No he didn't. Learn to light physics.

I'm asking if these bananas are of the Gros Michel cultivar, which got wiped out commercially but still survives in a few tiny places.

These were from a coworker who got them from her family, who grows one plant in their yard for personal consumption. Oh, I'm in Taiwan, by the way, so we're well away from the South American and African blight that wiped out all the commercial plantations that used to supply the USA.

Bananas exported to the USA are almost entirely Cavendish nowadays.

Thank you. :-)

I should note, one reason I ask is because their smell was a perfect match for the artificial "banana" flavor in common use. Flavor wasn't quite there, because it could have used a couple of days more for ripening.

They look a lot like lady fingers to me but the skin has a rougher than usual texture so maybe not. It's hard to tell without smell, taste and touch. Also where were these grown?

Black markings on the skin show the sugars coming up, if you know your bananas you should know that what ever it is won't taste near the Cavendish you find in supermarkets

Taiwan. Haven't heard of ladyfinger bananas before; how do they compare to Cavendish?

I know it's difficult; just hoping for some ideas.

If I knew my bananas I wouldn't be asking. :-)
