Ralph: Honeybunch, I wanted bananas and milk for my cereal in the morning! June: And that's what I bought! Ralph: But the bananas are green! June: They'll be ripe in a matter of time! Ralph: It will probably coincide with the milk's expiration date!

Put the green bananas in a paper bag for a couple of days and they will be ripe.
