Pawpaw is just a papaya, right? If so and you decide to give it another try, try putting some fresh lime/lemon juice (half by half, not either/or) into the crater left by removing the seeds.
I also didn't like them, but now I can't wait for them to show up (there are seasonal in the supermarkets here).
- admash 3y agoThe pawpaw referred to here is a small deciduous tree native to the eastern United States and Canada, producing a large, yellowish-green to brown fruit. The papaya, whilst also sometimes being called a pawpaw, has been available commercially for some time in the US, and is not what is being referred to here.

- Lio 3y agoBiscuits, chips, "pudding" or flapjacks are also completely different things in different countries. It's the opposite of the scone situation; my wife pronounces that "scone"... whereas I always pronounced it "scone". Potato/Potato I guess. :P
- pvaldes 3y agoThey are on a different family. Pawpaw is a northern cousin of the Cherimoya (that also has acetogenins, but is in every supermarket). The tropical Soursop has even more and nobody cares (tip: They should. Anybody visiting Latinoamerica should be aware of it. The family has a lot of delicious fruits). The real problem is the dull aspect (like a greyish-green potato) and short shelf life of paw paw.
