I've seen a couple of recent articles about the wild fruit named the paw-paw. For your personal paw-paw perusal, here they are.
Pawpaws are America’s hidden edible treasure. Here’s how to pick them.
The revival of a forgotten American fruit
From the latter:
"The pawpaw is in the same family as the custard apple, cherimoya, sweetsop, soursop and ylang-ylang. It's a subtropical fruit that migrated north from Central America, and it is atypical; the only member of the family not confined to the tropics."
You won't find them in stores, because they have a really short shelf life. But you can find them if you want them, and there's some even nearby me. So I may have to take a road trip to the paw-paw patch.
