Carica papaya. Common Name:Pawpaw, Paw Paw, Papaw, Poor Man's Banana, Hoosier Banana, etc. (In Australia the tropical papaya, Carica papaya, is also known as Pawpaw). The one that grows through out the American southwest is considered toxic, this IMO, is due to the action of the enzymes. The "toxic" one has been used in conjunction with fermenting kombucha tea and taken as a cancer remedy (not FDA approved) and is mentioned in Harald Tietze Kombucha books as well as made popular by the Australia's Kombucha House (TM) . The entire fruit may be used.
At any rate buy organic papaya at your local super market. and as Mark says grind the seeds. Ed Kasper -----Original Message----- From: Mark S.

Dry and grind them in a pepper mill. -- "The real trouble with this world of ours is not that it is an unreaonable world, nor even that it is a reasonable one. The commonest kind of trouble is that it is nearly reasonable, but not quite. Life is not an illogicality, yet it is a trap for logicians. It looks just a little more mathematical and regular than it is; its' exactitude is obvious; but its' inexactitude is hidden, its' wildness lies in wait" --G. K. Chesterton _______ Mark S.
