Availability of jackfruit

Jackfruit comes in various forms.  If you can buy fresh jackfruit, we highly recommend it, of course! You’ll have a lot of fun preparing the jackfruit.  However, outside of its countries of origin (South East Asia), jackfruit can be hard to come by. Fear not, there are plenty of alternative options.
