"It
is well recognized that the Papaya contains peculiar and valuable
digestive properties, which make it of great value in the diet."

The
Papaya melon has a distinctive flavor and aroma which cannot be
likened to any other fruit.
Papaya melons range from 4 to 20 inces and weigh as much as 10 pounds.
