Best Dried Papayas of 2026

"I love that these dried fruits are super sweet and totally satisfy my cravings with just a bite or two. The fact that they're free of added sugar, organic, and non-GMO makes me feel great about snacking on them. I also appreciate knowing they're minimally processed and a much healthier alternative to the canned or plastic-wrapped versions found in supermarkets. This is now my go-to snack, and I plan to keep purchasing it at a great price with Subscribe & Save."

"After trying the mango, pineapple, and tropical mix, I'm officially hooked! The dried bananas are surprisingly soft and chewy, and both the pineapple and mango are perfectly sweet without being overwhelming. I was skeptical at first, but these have become my favorite snack. Even though the papaya wasn't for me, these three flavors are absolutely five-star snacks."

"I've been buying the dried mango for about a year and have always liked its clean ingredients and great taste. Lately, though, the quality has slipped—the last couple of boxes were thin, fibrous, and not as flavorful. I’m hoping this is just a temporary issue and that future orders will go back to the high quality I expect."

"These papaya chunks are delicious and quite sweet. I really hope there’s no added sugar. After trying them, I noticed my digestive issues improved significantly, especially acid reflux. I keep them in the fridge in an air-tight container and now have them on a subscription basis!"

"Having grown up with fresh papaya, I was excited to try these. Unfortunately, the added sugar made them more like candied fruit than natural dried papaya. I ended up tossing almost the entire bag after just a couple of bites."

"I recently rediscovered a childhood favorite—dried papaya chunks! They are incredibly sweet and bursting with that tropical flavor I remember. Each bite takes me back to those carefree days. It feels like a tropical vacation for my taste buds!"

"I thought the taste and texture were excellent—the color was appealing, and even though the pieces were a little sticky, I could easily break them apart by hand."

"I always look for dried fruits with no added sugar, but I got these for my family, especially my mom, to put in her muesli. Personally, they’re a bit too sweet for me, but the papaya flavor is natural and they work well in cereal. If you like sweet dried fruit, this is a good pick."

"I bought the large bag for my Double Yellow Amazon parrot. The chunks were a perfect size and very fresh. This bag lasts a long time and is much better value compared to pet store options."

"I appreciate that these papaya pieces have just the right amount of sweetness without being overly sugared, and the natural fruit flavor really comes through. The resealable packaging keeps everything fresh, and I’d suggest this to anyone missing fresh papaya."

"My husband enjoys adding these to his cereal because they’re easy to use and flavorful. The convenience makes breakfast more enjoyable for him."

"I’ve bought this product multiple times, and it’s always been consistently excellent. Reliability in flavor and quality keeps me coming back."

"I really enjoyed the firm yet chewy papaya chunks, which were slightly moist in the center and naturally sweet. The 2lb bag lasted quite a while, and I found them perfect for a quick snack, especially when paired with nuts and dried pineapple."

"The product tasted unsweetened and free from preservatives, but the label lists sugar and citric acid. The papaya was tough and chewy as expected, though the surface was a bit sticky. Overall, it's a decent papaya snack."

"The papaya chunks were too sweet for my preference since I was searching for something with no added sugar. I'm not sure if the sweetness comes from the fruit or added sugar, but overall, they're still good."

"I’ve tried these dried papaya spears and the bag is huge and packed with thick, long pieces. It’s an excellent value for the price. The only thing is, they’re a little too sweet for my taste, but the texture and flavor are still fantastic. I’ll definitely be getting these again!"

"After using dried papaya every time I eat carbs, I’ve noticed major improvements in my blood sugar levels—I’m no longer pre-diabetic after 15 years! Even my doctor was surprised. Now I tell everyone about these papaya strips because they really made a difference for me."

"I used to worry about the white stuff on the papaya strips, but from my experience, it’s pretty common and doesn’t affect the flavor or safety. The taste is still delicious, and I’ve never had any issues after eating them."

"I've found these seeds really help with parasite cleansing and offer other health benefits. They're easy to take, and I've noticed positive changes, so I'll definitely purchase again!"

"I like to keep some seeds in honey as a natural anti-inflammatory and for parasite prevention. For me, there's a noticeable difference in my body's waste when I use them, so I believe they're effective."

"While I usually make my own, I tried buying these for convenience. Unfortunately, they had a moldy taste and smell, which isn’t like the fresh, homemade ones I’m used to. I prefer using them in a pepper grinder, as they’re a great substitute for black pepper and very good for you. I'll be looking for another brand closer to the quality I make at home."

"I've tried a lot of dried papaya over the years, and this is by far the freshest and most tender I've had. The pieces are a perfect size for snacking, and I really appreciate the quality and flavor. The only challenge is having the self-control not to eat the whole bag at once!"

"When I first got this dried papaya, I noticed how juicy and flavorful it was, especially when I used it in baking or soaked it. I also like eating it plain because it's just the right level of sweetness. Overall, everything about this product works for me."

"I picked this dried papaya specifically because it said low sugar, but after tasting it, it still seems pretty sweet to me. While the texture is chewy and pleasant, and the color looks appealing thanks to the added sugar, I'm still on the fence since I'm watching my sugar intake. Still, it's a good deal for the amount you get."

"I’m a big fan of this papaya! It isn’t overly sweet, so the true papaya taste really shines through. Plus, you get a solid amount for the price. Best I’ve tried so far!"

"We gave fresh papaya a shot, but honestly, this version is way better. It tastes fresh and the size works well for my kids. The only thing I’d change is the sugar, but the quality makes up for it."

"I appreciate how delicious and high-quality these are, though I do wish there was less sugar or an unsweetened version. Still, I’m happy to recommend them and give five stars."

"I was surprised at first because this wasn't what I expected, but after tasting the sugar-coated papaya, I found it absolutely delicious—so much so that I now crave that softer, candied treat. The follow-up order matched the description and was of exceptional quality. I'm giving this company five stars and plan to order more when the product returns."

"These little papaya nuggets are both sweet and tangy, which I love. For the price and taste, I'm starting a subscription. They're a perfect, convenient snack!"
