Sustainably sourced Jackfruit is a relative of figs and breadfruit.
It grows in tropical areas of Southeast Asia, Brazil and Africa.
While it is a fruit, its consistency is similar to that of chicken or pork.
It has a fairly neutral taste when young, so it takes on the flavor of whatever sauce or seasoning you pair it with.
It has a stringy consistency that works especially well with tangy BBQ sauce to make a vegan BBQ pulled 'pork' sandwich.
