Pawpaws are lovely, if controversial flavor-wise. :-) I wish they were more common around here, but we're sort of on the edge of their range. I hardly ever got any even when I lived in Virginia. My dad's got several varieties going now, I think all from Peterson.
At a farmers market here I bought a jar of paw paw jam (from local fruits, naturally! they don't ship well...) and it was really nice. That general "tropical fruit" flavor was still present, but the cloying note was reduced, so I suspect it would have more positive reception.
...I wonder if I could grow one in a pot, or convince a neighbor to grow one.
