Disappointed
duytrang2117
The quality is poor; the product was already watery when I received it, and some parts were still quite hard when cut open. It wasn't particularly sweet, and I won't repurchase it.
Aliceee
Papaya packaging was done with bubble wrap so it didn't get damaged and it's also exactly as ripe as needed.
sahithyy
Huge papaya

It was good but it was raw i am expecting that it is ripe. So what i did i put it to my rice container to ripen.almost going to ripe
losarim65
I left it out as long as possible before eating it; the outer layer was almost mushy, but the inside was still not very sweet.
C Chao
not yet ripe but in good shape, packed carefully and did not get smashed.
mariejoiz
Big,when it’s ripe I will eat it.
zannerhaleigh14
Papaya had black spots and was already soft
CristineTejero
Papaya looks ripe but has a very weird texture with it’s flesh having knots of hard unripe patches. I’m going to have to throw it all away.

Very Good!!
masabrinaalmeidaeua
It's the original flavor with no added sugar, and it tastes a little sour. The four small, individually wrapped packets are like the fruit ice cubes we used to eat as kids. My kids love frozen passion fruit, but fresh ones aren't available right now, so this is a pretty good alternative.
