Jackfruit

Where: Bangledesh

Jackfruit is a native fruit of southeast Asia, with a mottled green skin and yellow-white interior. The aroma is reminiscent of rotting onions, and the flavor seems somewhat like banana, or longan.

Jackfruit is very nutritious, and can be found sometimes ripe or unripe at local Asian markets (unripe it can be used a as a meat substitute), or frozen (as pictured to the right, after it has been thawed).
