Mine doesn't have that!

That I have seen, at bakery counters.

Mine either.
(I have to get bananas when they're just right. If they're too unripe, they "disagree" with me. If they're too ripe, they're just gross.)

If they're somewhat too ripe (like, banana-bread ripe) you can freeze them and use them in smoothies. If they're completely black and mushy then yuck.

I don't know anything about making banana bread, so I don't know how ripe that is.

So if it's got brown spots it's no good for eating on its own, IMO. It can make banana bread or smoothies, as I said. If it's totally brown and black, I wouldn't use it at all. I like mine when they still have a tinge of green at the top, but not when they're so green they're hard to peel.
I don't like banana bread, so I have no dog in this race, but if you ever wanted to make some it's pretty simple. My son used to make chocolate-chip banana bread in grade school.
