The jackfruit is a huge, spined, oval fruit that is believed to have been first cultivated in Indian rainforests.The fruit is the largest fruit in the world.The exterior of the fruit is not edible, but the flesh and seeds are commonly consumed. Jackfruit is the national fruit of Bangladesh. Raw jackfruit is very popular and in great demand after studies revealed that it is good to control diabates. However ripe jackfruit is very sweet and hence spikes up sugar levels.
