Papaya Tree
There were also papayas and saravatī, a type of orange, and also crushed squash. There were also regular cream, fried cream and a type of purī made with cream
(CC Madhya 14.29)
So here it is said, nigama-kalpa-taror galitaṁ phalam (SB 1.1.3), means “The Vedic literature is just like the desire tree, and the Bhāgavatam is the ripened fruit.” And galitaṁ phalam means a fruit ripened in the tree, it is very, very delicious. Generally, for business purpose, fruits or unripe fruits are taken from the tree, and it is artificially kept to ripe. That fruit means the unripe fruit taken from the tree and it is ripened artificially—that is not so tasteful. And if the fruit is ripened in the tree fully, then you taste it—it is very delicious. Another thing is that if any fruit in the tree, when it is ripened, it is tasted by the parrot, touched by the beak of the parrot, it becomes more delicious.
