"First, it’s good for the planet. Since the jackfruit tree is naturally drought and pest-resistant, it requires no artificial irrigation, pesticides, or herbicides to thrive. Second, it’s easy to grow, and the fruit itself is huge. (Literally. A single jackfruit can grow up to 100 pounds!) This makes it naturally easy to grow and a great high-yield crop for farmers. And finally, it’s good for us: versatile flavor, meaty texture, and full of sustaining fiber and important nutrients."
