In Kolkata in India the spring has gone and summer has started. It is getting warmer and maximum temperature is going to 30 degree celsius. The papaya plantations are well grown in the area. The papayas are eaten both as fruits and also as vegetables. They are good for health during this time of the year.

That is good to know. Could you tell us some of the health benefits of eating papayas. Are there any side effects if you eat too much? Someone told me it is bad luck to grow papaya tree at the front of you house Is this true? Have you ever heard about this?

I like ripe papayas, but don't like the unripened ones as vegetables.
