    Maybe don't order one in until you've finished your fast. ;)

    Just in case it turns out you can't juice it!

    I see them in the supermarket all the time (same with durians), but nothing beats one fresh of the tree, OMG YUM!!!

    FYI: in my country (Indonesia), if you get the latex (from jackfruit) on your hands, you can use oil from palm oil and after that you can wash with water.

    the pic you posted (on page one of this thread) has soooo much of the yellow fruit. the one i bought yesterday from an oriental market had very very little of the yummy yellow parts.

    to get the glue off my hands i washed with soap a few times. came right off. no need for anything more than that.

    but the fruit... it was worth it! i'll be buying it again. (but i wouldn't bother juicing it, i doubt i'd get much juice from it)

    Cost prohibitive in my area. Saw one at whole foods and now that I see the effort involved I think I will wait.

    It is, therefore, evident that it is possible to cure by foods, aliments and fruits; but as today the science of medicine is imperfect, this fact is not yet fully grasped. When the science of medicine reaches perfection, treatment will be given by foods, aliments, fragrant fruits and vegetables, and by various waters, hot and cold in temperature.

    Not seen them locally but if they are as expensive as Durian then I will have to wait. I like the look of the prep though. I like getting intimate with fruit ;)
