It’s been a while since I’ve written about plantbased alternatives to help you expand your dietary choices. I recently discovered jackfruit during a serious barbeque craving. Yes, although I am a vegan, I still have the occasional cravings for meat. My discovery of jackfruit ushered me through my Memorial Day grief of pulled pork barbeque. I assure you that if you try it, you won’t be able to tell the difference. Well, maybe you will, but you will enjoy it nonetheless. I remember the first time I tried jackfruit, I was amazed at how it could mimic the texture and flavor of meat. It was a game-changer for me, and I hope it will be for you too.
