Q.Comment On Article On Jackfruit
Amy is confusing jackfruit and durian, and her description describes both as if they are the same Durian stinks, jackfruit doesn’t. They look sort of similar but don’t taste or smell the same at all. Jackfruit tastes sort of like fruit rollups and has a meaty texture. Durian has a really soft thick texture like ice cream and so rich it can make you feel tired or even sick if you drink alcohol. Chinese people love durian They’re also both grown in SE Asia, but they’re as different as plums and pears Also Thailand is missing from the countries list. Both of these fruits grow in Thailand, and Thai durian is particularly prize by the Chinese for some reason. Jackfruit tastes better in my opinion Source: lived in SE Asia for years
