Thanks. Is it eaten alone or there are other uses?

I did a research on breadfruit but found a similar species called jackfruit which looks more like this.

Jackfruit is a lot bigger than breadfruit. We don't have jackfruit in Nigeria.

It is not usually eaten raw. It can be cooked (boiled) or fried. Can also be used to thicken soups. Or added to flour. Many uses
