Native to Southeast Asia, jackfruit is an exotic fruit grown in tropical climates. Boasting a unique spiky exterior and tender stringy interior, jackfruit is the largest tree-borne fruit in the world, growing up to 100 lb. It can be harvested at various stages of maturity to achieve different flavors and textures. The fruit contains a plethora of nutrients including heart-healthy potassium, vitamin A and C, magnesium, calcium, iron, and riboflavin. This young jackfruit product is best when cooked with added ingredients for optimal flavor and texture. Plus, this product can save you valuable space in your walk-in fridge since it can be stored at room temperature until opened. Allow your customers to experience the wonder of jackfruit by adding it to your menu!

Since 2006, Upton's Naturals has been pioneering flavorful vegan meat alternatives using real and recognizable ingredients. Beginning with seasoned wheat-based seitan products, this independently owned Chicago, IL based natural foods company has since introduced the first-to-market seasoned and ready-to-eat jackfruit in the United States. By adding innovative meat alternatives like banana blossom, a deliciously flaky fish substitute, to their line of products, they continue to lead the charge on discovering healthy and unique meat alternatives and natural foods. With extensive offerings like pre-prepared vegan meal kits representing different international flavors, mac and cheese, and a variety of seitan and jackfruit products, Upton's has something to offer for everyone!

Super yummy! Got this to use for vegan jackfruit tacos and with some adobo seasoning it did the job. It does have a little bit of an acidic/pickled/brine taste, but isn’t super noticeable when seasoned and cooked down. Seasoning is everything with this. Texture is great!
