From Seed To Supper Jackfruit

With the promise of fruit, the tree dedicates its resources to nurturing the young jackfruits. Initially, these small, green orbs are inconspicuous, almost camouflaged among the leaves. As they grow, their spiky exteriors shield the sweet, fibrous flesh within. Patiently, the jackfruit swells, drawing sustenance from the soil and the sun, until it reaches a formidable size-sometimes weighing up to 80 pounds.
