8. Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus)
Jackfruit, the most often occurring tree-borne fruit worldwide, can weigh up to 55 kg (120 pounds). As a meat alternative in vegetarian and vegan cuisine, the fruit's enormous scale and distinctive texture have made it ever more sought-after. Young, underripe flesh has a neutral taste and meat-like texture that absorbs marinades and sauces easily. The fruit pods develop pleasant and aromatic, with a taste sensation that blends banana, pineapple, and mango when fully ripe.
