Here is what the Jak pulp looks like after cleaning the fruit....

1/4 pound. It's actually a beach ball that Noel blew up in the shape of a jackfruit.  ;)

FGM,

Is this a rhetorical question?? Because if it is, my guess is ZERO lbs... Because you ate it all and there is simply nothing left of this delicious specimen of a jackfruit anymore.. :'( :'(  ;)

J/k!
