I'm so glad you talked about the mold. I just bought a papaya yesterday and woke up to a few mold spots this morning. I was so sad because it's not fully ripe yet. Now I'm happy again ☺YAY
I didn't know how to store it and I left it out for 3 days unrefridgerated and when I saw mold I threw it out!
BETTER SAFE THAN DEAD ............... 😂🤣😂@@THEEMillennial.90sBBY
Thank you! I am glad I watched this.
I would describe them as Mango and Melons hidden love child😂
Martha’s Best truly has the best solo papayas! incredible!
Interesting. When you said papaya has a similar taste to manage, now it makes sense when my sister will accidentally call mango 🥭 papaya. Lol
Thank you so much .People should understand because this is good for them.
Thanks so much! I just at an amazing papaya thanks to this video!
Thank you for this video. It was very helpful as I stand in front of my green papayas. I would encourage you to teach how valuable those seeds are, and edible. Wonderful for digestion. Thank you for not spraying your trees 🙏
So would you recommend blending them as well in place of say chia seeds??
I take out the seeds, cut each half into about four wedges, slice the "meat" off the wedges and cut into bite size pieces. Then I squeeze the juice of one or two limes on it. The great thing about it is it will last in the fridge for almost a week while you have papaya any time you want.
Thanks for the post. I like Papaya with yogurt.
I love Papaya and it is my favorite fruit among all any other ones! I would eat 3 payapas a day, 1 for breakfast, 1 for lunch and 1 for dinner !
Yes I agree with it tasting sorta like mango. This was such a cute video 🤗
Mango is much more tangy--or similar to a peach flavor. To me papaya tastes like a better version of cantaloupe.
Good video. I’m going to buy one today!
awesome ! thanks
I really like it.
How can you tell if it's a bad papaya? I often buy them and it looks like a mix of black and white seeds. Looks moldy to me and I don't trust it but they are like that so many times. Is the white seed-looking stuff mold? Thanks!
when will the papayas go on the site?
Hey Beautiful!thank u!🥰🥗🎸
Thanks for the detail! Gorgeous fruit and young lady. I was wondering about when they're ripe. I just invested in my first one to try. Next up to read into the seeds and see if they're a tree that produced the same fruit or not at all and requires cuttings grafted onto the root stock stalk. Any ideas?
Please do a review of the fruit of soursop please
definitely adding it to the list!
Nice papayas
I thought you were going to scoop the seeds out?
I cut mine too early! Even after watching this vid. She says they need to have a bit of give, mine did but it's still colourless and without flavour. I should have left it! A costly mistake to make, but I'm sure I'll get better next time.
Keep in mind that to maximize profit, they want minimum spoilage, so they tend to pick fruit when it is way too green, and expect it to ripen during shipment & shelving. Unfortunately, once picked, the fruit (cut off from its source of water & nutrients) starts to die, and although it has a limited ability to continue to develop the ripe color, flavors, and texture, it can never do as well as tree, bush, or vine ripened. The impulse to maximize profit, leads to loss of the invisible loss of flavor & texture, so much so, that many (if not most) can never fully develop, before they begin to spoil. So it is best to err on the side of barely ripe, for most travel ripened tropical fruit.
PS: wouldn’t “Fruitful Miami” be a better name?
You can use the ones not completely ripe to make salsa. I sometimes buy shredded green papaya to make from an Asian market to make Thai green papaya salad. A whole papaya would be way too much so I just buy enough for myself. It's really good with some sticky rice and crispy barbequed pork belly. Makes a wonderful meal!
“Berry” nice job young lady!
Are the seeds edible? I've eaten them before I don't know
Yes, they are, and supposed to have health benefits. I don't dislike them but neither do I like them that much but I still make a point to eat some from each papaya.
I only buy the ones that are starting to mold...sweeter
Sometimes I use papaya instead of jelly on peanutbutter sandwich...sometimes mix with banana🍌
The papaya I grew smelled and tasted like the smell of ammonia. Like windex or something. Maybe it was because the cruddy dirt it was planted in ?
Flavor more similar to Melon (cantaloupe) than Mango ... & some I've had in Mexico are not very sweet at all ...
you have to try papaya from Miami, they're suuper sweet
I usually describe them as a cantaloupe as well, but a little sweeter. Maybe somewhere between a cantaloupe and a mango?
The flesh is similar to a cantaloupe too.
whats a little bit of give
A little bit soft, like picking avocados.
You should crush the seeds and eat them to kill parasites. It's amazing! 😅
Make sure you only buy organic papaya. The conventional ones are nearly all GMO and every single one is processed by irradiation.
YOU HAVE NICE LITTLE PAPAYAS !
This is a sweet video from a beautiful woman
thanks for the help. you look very lovely by the way (L) enjoy.
This is that girl who ate a fruit off a tree rather than taking it off and eating it
Shes pretty like the fruit ;)
It’s a cool company and all, but I have no idea who’s supporting their business when a small box of fruit is $110 lmao
😳 What!?
Eat the seeds, they clean out your gut.
She looks like Teresa Palmer lol
Papaya taste sweet but don't act like you don't know what that other flavor is....... its butt. Papaya taste like sweet farts. Yet I keep buying them. One day I will like papaya!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
? This is funny but just wrong. Papaya doesn’t taste like farts wtf. I think you need to check your papaya supplier
You are cute!!
When the lecturer is this pretty, we will have more knowledgeable consumers of fruits.
She talks too much
the point of this video is to talk about papayas lol
please don't listen to that negative comment. i think that person just needs a papaya! HA ;D
@Flave You think too little.
your papayas are very cute
You mean melons!
@Bow Legged She seems ripe enough
