Minimal, clean ingredients. Tasty, good value-for-money.
Immense value for money. Minimal, clean ingredients. Bought to cook with as a meat substitute, and served the purpose very well. Much tastier than the in-brine tins, which supermarkets only seem to carry.

Big chunks of jackfruit
This is really good value, can’t get it for this price in the supermarket. I tend to boil it for 10 mins before shredding and flavouring as it makes the job easier. The texture is perfect and it takes on the flavour that you add it it.

A lovely alternative to meat and tofu
I bought this tin of Jackfruit thinking, “I’ll make a curry, it’ll be fine.” Wrong. It wasn’t fine. It was a revelation! I opened the tin and suddenly my kitchen smelled like a tropical paradise collided with a coconut milk factory. I added onions, tomatoes, lemon, and coconut milk (see my review for coconut milk), and the Jackfruit responded. It twisted, it mingled, it basically started directing the curry like it had attended the Royal Academy of Spice. By the time I tasted it, I was convinced this Jackfruit had superpowers. My humble curry had ascended. I felt heroic, enlightened, and slightly concerned about how two tins had nearly taken over my kitchen. My cat stared at me as if to say, “You’ve peaked, human. We must recalibrate.” Pro tips from the frontlines: It's cheaper to buy on here than Asda 🤫🤫 Chop it into smaller pieces unless you want whole Jackfruit chunks grappling with your spoon. Young Jackfruit = curry MVP. Older Jackfruit = still fine, but a bit grumpy. Don’t underestimate its power, it will make your curry so good your neighbours might call the emergency services. Verdict - Five stars. My curry skills are now officially 'legendary but slightly terrifying.' Jackfruit, I salute you.

Taste.
Not the best jackfruit I’ve tried, but that’s my opinion, someone else may find it lovely.

Lovely product
High quality jackfruit. Great texture and taste. Versatile food that can be cooked in a variety of ways. I made a nice stew. Good value for money.

Not nice
Horrible, I cooked it exactly like a recipe on Google said, rinsed it, soaked it, boiled it for 30 minutes, drained it, wrung it out in clean tea towel, fried it with spices and loads of BBQ sauce, it was still inedible
