Jackfruit! You can use it to make a mean vegan pulled "pork", it'd be great on a BBQ pizza.
As someone who loves Jackfruit, i think the actual fruit bulb of one is much too sweet for a pizza topping.
What you are talking about is actually a byproduct of the fruit which is called the rags. Which can be cooked and eaten, as well as the seeds. Although in my opinion the seeds are much tastier than the rags, just boil them till soft. get yourself a fresh jackfruit and try it.
I think it's great that we can find ways to eat more parts of the jackfruit, but the fact that most Americans think that jackfruit is just the rags and not the actual fruit means that they never had a fresh one and instead fell for a marketing ploy.
Is that what the whole thing is with jackfruit burgers and pulled jackfruit? They're using the byproducts?
I guess you can call it byproducts. The bulbs have a strange creamy texture on the inside, but the outside is also quite fibrous. You wouldn't make a burger from that.
You might be thinking of a durian? The bulbs are hollow once you remove the seed in them.
