Trader Joe's Dried Australian Red Papaya

Originally hailing from Central America, red papaya trees are now ubiquitous in Australia. This is particularly so in Far North Queensland, where the warm, tropical climate makes for prolific papaya-producing conditions— and Trader Joe’s Dried Australian Red Papaya happens to hail from this very region. Made from only the finest, sweetest Red Papayas (which are inherently sweeter than their yellow-fleshed counterparts), it’s a simple snack, to be sure—simple, yet supremely satisfying.

Unlike much of the dried papaya on the market, our Dried Australian Red Papaya contains just one ingredient: Red Papaya—no added sugars or preservatives here, folks! It’s just unsweetened, unsulfured, tropical-tasting Red Papaya, which our supplier carefully hand-picks, slices, and dries to chewy—not tough—perfection. So go ahead, papay-ile a few slices on your snack plate. Add them to homemade trek mixes. Use them to add bursts of tropical flavor to your morning oatmeal or yogurt… or simply snack on ‘em straight out of the bag!
