I like jack fruit sooooooooo much as it tastes very sweet. But opening it up taking out the edible portion is very tough. so many times out of laziness I skip eating it. But I cant resist myself from eating it as I do have jack fruit tree in my house.

When I was a kid, I really hate jackfruit. I hate its taste and its smell, my mom would love to keep it in the freezer or chiller after she takes out the edible part. But the time goes by, I eventually enjoying eating jack fruits. Taking the edible part is hard though because of the sticky substance of it, but taking it all out is very rewarding because I love eating it. My uncle has 10 trees of it and every month he could harvest 2 or 3 huge jack fruits and is so sweet. =)

We used to cook unripe jackfruit and eat. I like its taste very much.
Everyones taste is not alike. I love jackfruit toooooooooooo much. But eating too much jackfruit at a time results in stomach upset.
As you dont like too sweet its natural that you didnt like jackfruit.

Yes, jack fruit tastes too great.. I like it very much as well. But I sometimes i cannot eat such a fruit because it is really quite hard for me to take time to peel it out. Well, friend lavender_000, is suggest you try to look for that kind of fruit. Do not miss its great taste and very amazing looks.

Dear lavender I have uploaded jackefurit tree with jackfruit in the fruits section. You may take a look to know what jackfruit is. as keshlois told, it takes time to peel it out and take the fruit. But when you taste it you will forget all the work you have done to get it.

Jackfruit!!! I love it as dessert! This is really good but indeed opening up this is a sacrifice because of its spikes especially if this is already very big. Jackfruit trees do bear a lot of fruits actually and even the owner can't consume all so it is either they sell the fruits in the market or give away to the neighborhood. I like raw jackfruit also. I cook it with coconut milk with lots of chili and dried fish for flavoring. I also love the jackfruit seeds. I boil them like peanuts and eat them along with my family while watching tv.

Hi there!
I also like jack fruit, when I was younger I always want to have a vacation in my grandma's house because they have lots of it in there. I like its sweet taste but what I just don't like about it is its very sticky sap that we need to oil our hands first before eating it...hehe
Aside from the fruit, we also like its seeds to be boiled. And when the fruit is not yet ripe, we also like to cook it with coconut cream and dried fish! ahaha yummy!
I also like the sweetened jack fruit in "halo-halo" and also I like it with "turon" !

"The harder the struggle, the sweeter the reward." If it's a tough job taking the fruit out of its shell, then eating the fruit has to be a taste of heaven. Enjoy your jackfruit mjanakha! God bless you.
