Jackfruit has emerged as one of the new superfoods, but, like with so many other emerging superfoods, we used to eat this when it was in season almost as a staple. With time and changing diets jackfruit did become less popular - why eat a meat substitute when you can eat meat and its easier to prepare - but it is slowly becoming more popular as now as well!
