[QUOTE="AloeSvea, post: 1061146, member: 150927"] [FONT=Verdana]I had to look 'jackfruit' up to know what it was![/FONT] [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackfruit[/URL] [FONT=Verdana]Then I looked up its carb content [URL]https://www.fatsecret.com/calories-nutrition/usda/jackfruit[/URL] - which as we are to varying degrees diabetic - we are very interested in the carb content of food. And one cup of sliced jackfruit is nearly 40% carb. (Jackfruit are related to figs and are a kind of breadfruit?) They sound delish, but I can't eat anything that high in carbs. Squash has a low carb content though - only 3% carbs in a cup of it sliced. I'd have to eat a LOT of squash for it to fill me up though! I personally don't slam anyone for their choice of food.
