i eat papaya but not the ripe one, i could not take it to swallow. I like a crunchy one in which i can eat a whole plate with the spicy sauce. Every time i go to the market i use to buy a crunchy one and a ripe one for not all of my family love to eat ripe papaya only my husband and my mother in law love to eat especially when the ripe papaya is sweet.

The papaya - The papaya (from Carib via Spanish), is the fruit of the plant Carica papaya, in the genus Carica.
I never tasted papaya. You made me curiouis to find about it since I never saw it in real life. The fruit is ripe when it feels soft (like a ripe avocado or a bit softer) and its skin has attained an amber to orange hue. The fruit's taste is vaguely similar to pineapple and peach, although much milder without the tartness. © ronaldinu 2008

Yes, you are right! I believe that an Papaya is classified as an Tropical Fruit..

Hi there my friend Cream. I have never tried to eat Papaya but i am curious, what do they taste like ? They are rather expensive and i would like an insight so that i know if it would be worth it to buy and try one.

They are very sweet and fruity like. You can buy them in a fruit can with the Tropical Fruit combined in it. It is very delicious! The can may cost around $2.00 or so..

I love em the papayas..But i dont like the smelly kind. We had a papaya tree at our home. the papayas used to be delicious. When you cut those papayas inside you will get a star shape. I like only those kind of papayas. now i got hold of the seeds and i have grown them in my new house. They have started bearing fruit . I have them often. I have got about six papaya trees in my garden..

Oh, have you tried getting them in canned fruit? That is where I get them from. Dole Plastic jar bottle has Papaya's in it along with other kinds of Tropical fruits.

They are not very common here. I am sure that if I looked for them at a certain store that I know, I would find them there. I will have to try one. I believe I have had it in mixed fruit salad from a can. How do you generally eat yours? Do you eat is like an apple? Do you have to cut them up?

Mines is usually in an can with Tropical Fruit in it.. That is how I love it! If I could get it as an whole fruit, I would enjoy it just the same! I will add some Lite salt to it!
