They're always very fresh when they arrive, which is great.

The outer leaves were damaged and red when it arrived, so I considered returning it. However, I was busy that day and decided to just remove the outer leaves to eat it. Now that I’m trying to eat it... the outer leaves aren't the only problem. The red cabbage that came with it is like that too... though at least that one was clean inside, so I ate it... It seems like this issue must have been visible from the moment it was packaged. It feels like they just sent it thinking they were going to throw it away anyway, and then gave a refund if I asked... I am disappointed because it feels like this is the mindset with which they sold the product. I have never experienced anything like this before, so I am very disappointed.

It arrived perfectly.
Katherine
Leaves are tender yet crisp with a clean, slightly sweet flavor that works well for salads or as a wrap base. The texture is softer than regular lettuce but still holds enough structure without wilting too quickly. It pairs easily with simple dressings or richer foods, adding a fresh contrast without overpowering the dish. Portion is decent for light meals or sides, though best used soon after opening to keep that freshness. Overall, a reliable and versatile staple for quick, healthy meals.

It looked pretty when cut out, but it tasted like it wasn't fully ripe. It was very crunchy and not sweet, not the papaya I was used to.

The papaya was not fresh; it had started to rot and looked unappetizing.
