## Description

Edward & Sons Organic Young Jackfruit is native to southern India, where prolific trees flourish on family farms that are certified organic to USDA standards. While mature jackfruit is sweet and fragrant, young jackfruit is not sweet at all, because young fruit is picked before its starch changes into sugar. Local cooks prize it's neutral taste and meaty texture, which assume the flavors of accompanying spices in popular regional dishes. Even so, the plentiful fruit exceeds local demand and remains on the tree. We purchase organic young jackfruit from this seasonal abundance, helping farmers earn important additional income from their crop. Guided by our motto to offer "Convenience Without Compromise", we carefully pack packages without added ingredients. We invite you to enhance our jackfruit with your favorite sauces and seasonings. It will adopt their flavors and star in your culinary creations. Edward & Sons Organic Young Jackfruit Pieces easily flake into the ideal texture for vegan pulled pork and other meatless dishes. Both soy and gluten free, it will quickly earn a valued place in your pantry. Imagine what you can create with a fruit that performs like meat!

Review: Excellent product. Never having ordered this before, I was expecting it to look like canned jackfruit - white and in brine - but this is different. If you too have not used this before, here is what to expect: It is packaged in foil without additional fluids, and it has a dry look with a brown color. But, it is not dry, but nor is it slippery wet. There are no added fluids, and it is the consistency of the freshly pared fruit. The brown color you might assume is a mistake or turned rancid, but it is not. According to company webpages, "Most jackfruit contains preservatives and additives, but ours is 100% jackfuit! Due to oxidation and no preservatives our jackfruit is brown in color, making it even meatier!" That is correct. Think of it like an apple that has browned some. It is not like a browned banana that has gotten mushy, nor an exposed avocado that turns brown and bitter. The taste and freshness of this product are preserved despite the color. Consistent with it being the unripened fruit, the taste is a bit acidic or sour, but also a bit fruity or flowery. Unlike yellow sweet ripened jackfruit, it does not otherwise have a distinctive flavor, just that subtle slightly sour fruitiness. This is why it works well to mimic meats or anything else you might wish, because it will adopt whatever spices and seasonings you add without fighting against its own taste. I used my first 4.4 pound bag to make barbecue. Taste and texture were nearly identical to shredded meat barbecues, which was all a function of the spices and sauces that were added (I made my own, but your favorite bottled barbecue sauce would work just the same). That slightly sour floral taste of the jackfruit came through a bit, but if you do not approach this as "vegan pulled pork", instead just accept it on its own terms as barbecue sauce jackfruit, it is fantastic. Personally for me, I liked it better, and if I were at a picnic or restaurant and was offered a shredded meat barbecue slider versus the same with jackfruit, I would take the jackfruit every time. My first batch using about a pound of the fruit was a big hit, and I soon used the rest of the bag for the same recipe. Now, I am curious to see how it does with other dishes. If you need the jackfruit to be a lighter color for a certain dish, then canned varieties would be better, but for darker dishes or where color is irrelevant, the taste and texture of this is comparable to canned jackfruit (but a bit fresher). This product has the advantage that there is no waste - no brine to discard - you are paying for 4.4 pounds of fully usable product. I was very pleased with the product and the value for the money. I have added it to my desertcart grocery list for easy reordering.
Review: I was hesitant to try it because of certain reviews; but for the cost, I did anyway. And I'm definitely glad I did! The texture and the color (for those of us raised on meat) resembles the best pot roast you've ever eaten (other than none of the fat & knowing it's not animal)! It takes the flavors of what you cook it with very well, comes apart easily into shreds if you want that, & has a lovely neutral flavor that does not get in the way. So far I've used it in stir fry & eaten a little bit plain, right out of the bag, for curiosity. Both my roommate & I LOVED it! This is the best jack fruit "meat" I've ever had. The "seeds" in it are small enough that the skin around them are very soft unlike others I've eaten that have the skin in and (in my opinion) ruin the otherwise lovely texture. That alone has me sold on purchasing this product again once we've eaten up the large amount! ;) HIGHLY recommend. I do not know how it is after freezing as I'm just now putting the extras into the freezer. My thought, based on its current texture, is that it should be just fine. I definitely don't want to waste any of this! UPDATE: I have frozen this many times & it comes out just fine. When I said before that it has a "lovely neutral flavor", I mean that it really is neutral if you eat it right out of the bag. You're going to think it doesn't taste like anything, really, maybe even weird. BUT, the great thing is that the neutral taste means that it can easily take up whatever you season it with. Because it's "deep" like meat, I think it best with flavors you'd use for beef (ie: Massamun Thai Curry - personal fav!, BBQ, or other strong flavors). However, if you marinade it beforehand, you could possibly have even more flexibility with using it.

*by A***. on 19 November 2025*

Absolutely disgusting! I make jackfruit stew during the cold months and this was the first year I couldn’t get it from my local store so I bought this since it was highly recommended. Worst food purchase of my life. Even after simmering in my stew base for 40 minutes it has this nasty flavor that matches the atrocious smell from the package. I saw some people say that it cooks up great and no funky taste but I don’t know if they just have poor taste buds or I got a bad batch but I will never buy this again. In time where money is tight, I was counting on this for many meals. Now I’m out $30 and have to figure out how to make meals for my family without it.
