Re: Moar Chicken needed
Do you mean Papaya? I'm seeing those in supermarkets here all the time.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PapayaThe end of what Son? The story? There is no end. There's just the point where the storytellers stop talking.

Re: Moar Chicken needed
Paw Paw is an entirely different fruit. Quite different from a papaya.
Same with Chokecherries. Quite tasty, but not generally going to see them in the supermarket, and substantially different than the cherries you normally do see.
Probably the oddest thing I have growing this year is a Stevia plant. You'll see the processed Stevia available in a supermarket pretty routinely, but you won't generally see the greens unprocessed. I have no idea if it'll work out good/interestingly as salad greens, but I'll give it a try.

Yes, paw-paw is Asimina triloba. Very short shelf-life, and potentially slightly neurotoxic, if Wikipedia is to be believed.

Re: Moar Chicken needed
I have dewberries growing wild all over the place (including areas where I want grass for cows). Really though, I can't tell much difference between them and blackberries. They are really good at 7:15am when you haven't eaten breakfast and are having to move a bunch of portable electric fencing around.

I think my wife had one of these growing inside last year. Our 4 year old kept snacking on the leaves.

Where oh where is sweet little Nellie?
Way down 'yonder in the paw-paw patch!"
There are quite a few regional fruits and vegetables that have fallen by the wayside in favor of commercially viable breeds.
