    Does papaya just taste like… nothing to some people? Has a weird smell, not sweet at all like other fruit, weird aftertaste, the texture was creamy almost? Like overripe mango, and you have to squirt half a lemon onto it to make it palatable.

    It’s probably just myself, as the ones I had were definitely excellent in the fruit sense as I was in Latin America and they were freshly harvested and ripened properly, but it just wasn’t good. :/ wish I could like it.

        Not even close if I’m honest, it’s texture is like very overripe cantelope, cantelope should still have a slight crunch. Cantelope is also incredibly sweet, which I couldn’t say about papaya.
