To eat or put on my cereal? Number 2. To make banana bread? Preferably number 4 but Number 5 will do.

Number 5 will go in the compost pile!

The picture in the banana ripeness scale
@1 deep green on the left great when grated & combined with dark green plantains make tasty dumplings for soup.
#2 great for making tostones. If tostones isn't part of your culinary vocabulary you are missing a really good alterative to French fries.
3,4 & 5 I'd wait until ripeness gets to #6 for cereal or just snacking
#7 good for making a variety of deserts.
The pic on the far right in this group of pics sliced are really good fried to top vanilla ice cream. A little tricky to handle but worth the effort.

The joke that I never understood when I was a kid: Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
In the UK to understand something that had been puzzling you is known by the euphemism: "The penny dropped." What the penny refers to are those infuriating vending machines that eat your money but don't deliver your goods.
When the penny dropped in the vending machine, it simply meant that it triggered all the correct mechanism and you collected your prize.
I was about eight maybe nine when the euphemistic penny dropped, realising that time flies is a verb and fruit flies a noun. I wasn't a bright kid.
