Perfect for a variety of special diets, this mild-flavored jackfruit is a versatile base for countless vegan and gluten-free recipes, delivered in a convenient 6-pack of 14 oz cans. ## Description Native Forest Organic Young Jackfruit (aka Jakfruit) are grown in lush organic orchards on the beautiful island country of Sri Lanka. Big and prickly on the outside, young jackfruit's fleshy interior has a mild flavor and meaty texture that is remarkably similar to chicken. As such, Native Forest Organic Young Jackfruit is an excellent vegan, soy and gluten free meatless alternative to enjoy in numerous recipes. As it cooks, our young jackfruit begins to flake or shred into the ideal texture for vegan pulled pork and chicken recipes. It has a very mild flavor, making young jackfruit an excellent base to carry many different sauces and seasonings. Review: Seriously great. - Tried this to add a little more “chew” to my vegan recipes. So glad I did! Delicious. Great appearance and texture. Quality chunks. I shred/dice and sautee it in a little avocado oil before seasoning and adding it to a meal. Makes our vegan nachos taste ah-mazing. Pretty good value. One can yields enough (if finely shredded, which takes a bit of effort and time) to evenly cover my 12” skillet; 2 big or 4 small servings for my kid and I. Review: Delicious, but way too expensive. - I tried this can of Jackfruit and it was my first time having any Jackfruit. It was delicious. I liked the texture better than canned Artichokes, and the taste was sweet. Maybe that's why it is called "fruit" because it has a slightly sweet, fruit taste to it. I just added a little Dash seasoning and ate it with rice. I will probably not order it again though, because it's expensive. I paid around $8.60 for a can. Canned Artichokes cost around $2.50 a can. If Jackfruit was the same price, I would eat Jackfruit on a regular basis, but I don't want to pay more than $2.50 a can. I'm guessing other brands are also expensive. It just must be an expensive item in general. Too bad it's not within my price range. UPDATE: I tried another brand that was cheaper but it tasted horrible. It's a shame that there are no affordable options for this product that also have good quality. ## Features - MEATLESS ALTERNATIVE: Our Organic Young Jackfruit is an excellent vegan, soy & gluten free meatless alternative to use in numerous recipes.

I use this alot so if you want my suggestion (especially if you have never used jackfruit before) simmer in water for a LEAST 30 min then rinse to get brine taste off if using for bbq or meat substitute. No need in my opinion if using for a "chicken" salad type of dish. Enjoy!😁 **Q: Brine, water, or syrup? What are the used of each?** A: i've used other brands of jackfruit in water or brine and love them... but this one came and had lime juice listed on the label which i was not aware of since it's not listed here. i didn't like this one- i had the back taste of a tanginess which didn't work well with the 'chik'n' style casserole i made. i probably will only use this with bbq recipe...and use up the other cans but i won't order this brand again. (and yes, i rinsed and rinsed it!) **Q: whats the shelf life** A: My cans say 2018 ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seriously great. *by M***E on March 10, 2026* Tried this to add a little more “chew” to my vegan recipes.

It's a shame that there are no affordable options for this product that also have good quality. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I just love jackfruit *by J***A on December 27, 2023* I gave five stars for flavor, but it is really for lack of flavor. Jackfruit doesn't really have a flavor on its own. But because of that--it gets 5 stars. It sells a bit expensive on Amazon, but I live in a location that does not have it available. Be aware, though, that I have never received this product from Amazon without having all my cans dented. I have used these for tacos, BBQ, Reuben sandwiches, and nachos. Everything has turned out delicious. Though dented, I keep buying them. ## Frequently Bought Together - Native Forest Organic Young Jackfruit - Great Meatless Alternative, Plant Based Meat, Non-GMO Project Verified, USDA Organic - Original, 14 Oz (Pack of 6) - Organic Non-Fortified Nutritional Yeast Flakes, 2 Pounds (32oz) | Rich in Vegan Protein, B Vitamins & Beta-glucans | Keto Friendly, Dairy Free Cheese Substitute, Non-GMO, Gluten Free - Butler Foods, Soy Curls, 8 Ounce (pack of 4) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/76283161-native-forest-organic-young-jackfruit-original-14-oz-pack-6](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/76283161-native-forest-organic-young-jackfruit-original-14-oz-pack-6) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-09-07*
