    No. Definitely tastier. At least the fruit part. There is a different part that is more fleshy that is less tasty. It’s used as a pulled pork substitute in vegan dishes.

        Maybe I haven’t found a good recipe yet. I’ve used canned jackfruit and it just tastes like heartburn and bile. The ripe stuff is good tho…

      Controversial statement that jackfruit is tastier than durian :D. I guess I haven’t found the good tasting part of jackfruit yet.

      It tastes like very overripe pineapple to me. Maybe I didn’t get it at the correct ripeness or something.

        Yea and there are several varieties too, some don’t get goopy at all, they stay firm. I personally love the goopies though

      Doesn’t durian smell like shit but taste great? Or is that just propaganda to fool tourists into trying it? (I haven’t had the pleasure…)
