What is Papaya?

The papaya is a large fruit that grows in tropical climates. It is a larger fruit with a length of 6 to 20 inches and a width of 4 to 12 inches. They are shaped in a round oblong, or like a fat pear. When unripe the skin is green, as it ripens it turns a yellow golden color. The flesh is an orange salmon tone and firm yet soft. It is not overly juicy, and the center of the fruit is hollowed and contains round peppercorn sized black seeds. The flavor of the papaya has a meaty quality and is sweet like a melon.
