    Never seen in a German supermarket. It looks rather an apple than a pear.

    A nice green granny smith apple. I particularly like the crunch of the skin.

    Very sweet but also very juicy at the same time! You should definitely try one

    its amazing... i dont know if its from Zimbabwe but it is there in which i first tasted it...

    the taste is very refreshing and has undertones of banana, pineapple and guanabana. U could say it tastes like tropical juice drink.

    That sounds great, but I guess there is not a supermarket here in Germany in which I can get a jackfruit. And what is a guanabana? What does taste it? It looks similar to a jackfruit.

    i used to grow guanabana in my garden in zimbabwe... it tastes like puréed pear and apple

    if u can find Asian farmers markets or stalls, they may have jackfruit as they consume a lot of it

    That sounds strange. I don't know a fruit which taste like a guanabana.

    It's no use when it can be get in Asia when I live in Germany. Either jackfruits are
    available on request in my native country or I won't never eat ones in my life.
