    Jackfruit. For a while it was the ‘go to’ vegan option for places to offer; jackfruit smothered in awfully sweet BBQ sauce. The texture is softer than anything it’s trying to mimic, It’s messy, and flavourless.

      Honestly, I in general don’t really like when a meat is substituted for a food that is not a primarily protein source. Like replacing meat for cauliflower or jackfruit, as opposed to something with legumes or lentils
