And suuuuuper delicious. When I was in Micronesia with the Peace Corps, I had Papaya growing all around me, all year. I was almost habituated. Lots of local lore about it, like increasing libido, etc. I had not had it before, other than the dried and sugared kind, and looked for it when I got back. But, all I could find in the US was Central American, and it is very different, and, to me, not as good. But it sure is good in a Papaya Boat: a half with the scooped out portion filled with ice cream.

cheers

oz, wishing I could grow lots of what I had out there.
