But does it taste like chicken?
Do you need a Jackwagon to harvest it?
There is a monster sized one waiting at my grocers. I have eaten one before and they are good ... tasted like artichoke to me.
The Bounty went in search of Breadfruit to feed slaves.
History repeats again.
Why do people want pretend meat? The real thing is awesome!
Can you slice it 1 1/4 inches thick and grill it medium rare?
“You wouldnt miss anything...”
Well, there’s the protein for starters.
Impress me with some jackfruit bacon.
If you are a Progressive, everything fake is better.
If the Good Lord hadn’t intended for us to eat animals, then why did He make them out of meat?
Jackfruit is for jackoffs.
It doesnt have amino acids as animal protein has.
Keef Williamson, of the “Keef Cooks” channel on You Tube just did a video of him making an American-style barbecue sandwich with shredded jackfruit in place of pulled pork or chicken.
In all fairness, it was not one of Keef’s more tempting recipes. But I won’t hold that against him.
If you haven’t encountered Keef, he’s a British amateur chef from, I believe, Yorkshire. His sort of a Brit Mr. Food — his recipes tend to be fairly simple and practical, embracing not only traditional British cooking, but cuisines from around the world.
It’s kind of a hoot seeing a Brit making America-style meatloaf, barbecue, biscuits and gravy, pumpkin pie etc.
Best of all, Keef is a charming, humorous old gent of mature years — if you’re sick of Gordon Ramsey and this whole “celebrity chef” thing, you’ll love Keef’s unpretentious videos.
You’ll also like meeting his taste-tester, Mrs. Keef. They strike me as a mature couple who are genuinely devoted to each other, as the Lord intended.
No thanks. I’ll stick to deer and chicken I kill myself, beef from my neighbors’ cows, and even the occasional steak.
Jackfruit seems like such a great pejorative.
“Adam Schiff, you are SUCH a jackfruit!”
I do not eat plants, carbs or sugar.
Zero interest in ever eating this fruit.
Like all stupid eco-vegan plans, I imagine the carbon output, deforestation, processing and logistics cost and pollution of growing and shipping perishable jackfruit from SE Asia to Whole Foods to supply urban cucks is probably much greater than eating meat.
The mother of my Balinese friend in the mountain near Sideman had a small store where among other things she would make Jackfruit fritters. About 75 cents for a serving. She would sell with fresh sambal or sweet with honey on top. That and some pork belly sate made me a happy chap. RIP Ni Luh.
