What is the diffirence betwen papaya and paw paw

[@theuglykwan]

Paw paw is a different fruit from what is in the video. It looks like a long mango and has 3 black stones inside. I think it is related to sugar apples.

[@simonpure109]

As well in the agro market,papaya is red inside while pawpaw I the yellow one!!! Learned that today 😂😂

[@alexjames4315]

Everyone is wrong in this video for interchanging the name. Papaya is the original name because is from Latin America, and when it got to Australia they called it pawpaw instead of papayas but it’s confusing because North America has a fruit call paw paw that’s the original paw paw fruit and papaya is a different fruit. Now some people are saying paw paw and papaya are different because the color inside is different but that’s incorrect as well it’s just a papaya just different varieties and color.

[@jrod4488]

Paw paws and papayas are 2 seperate fruits

[@hasanamuhammad4727]

I never know what is the difference

[@belindamak1608]

In Africa we use the term pawpaw... Other parts of the world papaya

[@sarananyaro9089]

In Tanzania we call papai (singular),mapapai (plural),hahahahahaha,nafikiri hata kenya mjini
