Looks like Durian fruit which apparently smell a bit like rotting meat.
Jack fruit taste like artichoke hearts. i’ve head jack fruit curry. It was wonderful.
Looks like something we called ‘paw paws’ in East Tennessee as a kid. My grandfather said they were poisonous.
We called it Starvation Fruit in the USVI. You had to be starving to eat it.
Jackfruit also has a somewhat unpleasant smell.
Had a tree in my backyard for a number of years. It did NOT smell like durian.
Durian is much worse than jackfruit, that is true. It does smell like rotting flesh. Corpse fruit. I am told it tastes different from how it smells, but I cannot verify that as I’ve never been able to get up the nerve to taste it.
