That said, extremely ripe jackfruit will also emit a sickly-sweet smell that's "so sweet it stinks", like an overdose of perfume.

I actually like the smell of rotting jackfruit, but that is a good description.

Jackfruit is amazing too though. It's used a lot as a "meat" substitute. For example, jackfruit curry is delicious, nutritious and hearty.

Cooked jackfruit is really good, and you can cook and eat the seeds too.

Jackfruit and palm fruit in curries are some of my favorites.

It's durian! Brain fart
