Interesting, I’ve never heard of a pawpaw.I'll stick with my original answer of lobster and crab legs but for a fruit there's nothing more tasty IMO than the pawpaw. Good luck finding them because their shelf life is incredibly short. 2 days, maybe 3. Farmer's markets or a neighbor's yard.

Silver Queen corn on the cob, cooked in the husk over a fire or in the microwave. Needs no butter or salt.
Tabasco is my go to hot sauceHot sauce, the homemade Cajun hot sauce is the best imo
That’s a good one Bill Shy, I like the Cajun better vs a Creole hot sauce cause it has more crawfish and pork in it
Some people say Tabasco is from Texas but it ain’t, it was originally made and recipe in a central Louisiana parish they used on catfish at a place that did nothing but catfish dinners to spice up the taste. I can’t remember the town but that’s what my mom told me, she from that area
trying not to name something that has already been said, i'll go with cilantro.
A good apple is hard to beat. JMHO.
A few said crab/lobster...can't argue that but would add shrimp to list.

To me, taste like a cross between a pear & banana. You're right about shelf life - why they're not commercialized. Seeds are a PITA. Dad loved them as they grew wild on my grandpa's farm land.I'll stick with my original answer of lobster and crab legs but for a fruit there's nothing more tasty IMO than the pawpaw.

That was me as a kid. Of course they were warm, even hot. Grandpa put out like 1500 plants & sold at farmer's markets.
Cayenne and Vanilla for cooking, each does great things with just about any food.
Crappie for fish
If I can't have salt, pepper and olive oil on it then I would say ribeye steak
Chocolate if you forgive the sugar, but it is the one most tasty substance ever for me. It is incredibly addicting and I could eat it in just about any form. Love the stuff.

In my humble opinion...
- Can't be meat or fish because that needs some seasoning
- Can't be chocolate cause chocolate sucks if there's no sugar added to it
- Tomatoes are good but need seasoning if plain
- Garlic is good, but again, is infinitely better on something or with something
- Cilantro is fantastic, but tastes kind of like grass by itself
- Lemon? Are you serious?
- Bacon is cured
- Peanut butter sucks unless sugar is added
- Mushrooms have no taste unless seasoned and cooked
- Honey is apparently processed by bees so that's oddly out
- Leafy greens (only taste good with ranch dressing - lol)
- Coffee and tea have to be mixed with water
- Fruit
- Maple syrup (unless that is processed by maple trees)
- Sweet potatoes
