Not quite? In my city in UP you will occasionally see green bananas sold like this alongside other vegetables, but in the fruit markets and at the grocery stores I’ve only ever seen them sold in bunches like they do in the west.

As an aside, I love how the same abbreviation (UP) can stand for such disparate places as the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and Uttar Pradesh. I had to reread the sentence when my mind initially used the wrong one.
It's a neat contrast.
