Hey /ck/, my papayas look like this. Could someone tell me what they are and what causes them to appear in the first place? Not sure whether I should throw it out atm. Thanks
papaya has some sort of latex inside. thats normal. on the other hand ive never seen it coming outside unless bruised.
and that looks like an avocado. does it get orange when ripe or is it some strange variety? u should open and show

If that's an avocado it's the largest avocado in the world

I know for sure it's a papaya. Yeah, I read about it potentially being latex but I'm also wondering what causes it. I can't find any bruises on the outside/soft spots when I touch it. Didn't have them when I got the papaya at the store, but after I put it in a brown bag to ripen for some days they started popping up.
That's what happens when your papayas are imported from Colombia.

I think tyrone biggums ws trying to smuggle crack into your place mang.

This.
Go watch Narcos, OP. It turns out that everything exported from Colombia is shipped with cocaine.

Don't lick it. I licked the stuff that oozed out of a mango after cutting the skin once. Bitter as fuck couldn't get that out after 10 mins of brushing

Crystalized sap from burrowing insects. It's normal.
