Today we going to look at the papaya fruit.
I'm not a big fan of this fruit, But sometimes i enjoy it.
The reason i don't like it that much cause it's not that easy to find a good fully ripe papaya, Well at least here in Thailand.
Taste
The papaya fruit is loaded with healthy nutrients especially in vitamins A and C.
Usually the tasty part is right under the papaya seeds, Sometimes the papaya can be bitter.
Hot to know when ripe?
The method that i use to know if the papaya is ripe. I press gently on the fruit, If it's a bit squishy. Then it's ready to eat.
A few molds is also a good indication.
Bonus
Funny thing is that i'm from Israel and i had in Israel better papayas than in Thailand.
Some people say that it's healthy to eat the papaya seeds,Kills parasites etc.
Iv'e never really tried it. I think it's going to be too bitter.

I once to a raw foods certification class and learned that the seeds are often used as birth control. Its an amazing fruit. Not always that tasty though.

It's a yummy fruit. Thanks for all the insights you shared through this post. Fun and informative. I look forward to visiting Israel and Thailand so that I can compare papayas from both countries and see which one is the best :)
