In Taiwan (as well as in China), I've seen people use papaya as a meat tenderizer. My Mother would put a slice of papaya into the pot when she's cooking 'tough' meat such as beef cubes or pork roast.

***********
I learned about the difference between fructose and glucose from observing my late Mother-in-law. She had been a diabetic for over 20 years and was encouraged by her doctor to eat fruit whenever she had a craving for sweet stuff.

"Glycemic index has been advocated as a means to gauge the compatibility of foods with the special diet needs of people with diabetes. Fructose has a low glycemic index and results in moderate release of insulin to the bloodstream relative to glucose and sucrose."

Guess it's just the lesser of the two 'evils'.
