I only discovered jackfruit just recently while browsing the tofu section of my grocery store. If you are from the US and aren’t familiar with it, that is probably because it is not grown in the US. Jackfruit is native to India, and grows in Thailand, Brazil, Australia and Africa. One fruit can weight over 100 pounds – they are huge! It is rich in vitamin C, B vitamins and antioxidants. You can usually only find it canned, frozen, or sometimes in the fridge section near the tofu, but never fresh in the US. Jackfruit has been gaining popularity with vegetarians and vegans because it has texture similar to meat…
