Papayas
Peak Season: Year-round
Perfect Pick: Beginning to turn yellow and somewhat-yielding flesh when lightly squeezed. Avoid papayas that are awash in green, have dark spots, or are shriveled. Blotchy papayas often have the most flavor.
Handle with Care: Once ripe, eat immediately or refrigerate for up to 3 days. Unripe, greener papayas should be ripened at room temperature in a dark setting until yellow blotches appear.
The Payoff: A complete nutritional package, including plenty of fiber and vitamins C, A, E, and K.
