WWW.THEJACKFRUITCOMPANY.COM @TheJackfruitCo THE JACKFRUIT COMPANY™ FAQS

COMPANY Who founded The Jackfruit Company™ and why? The Jackfruit Company story began in India, where our founder, Annie Ryu traveled in 2011 on a medical student mission. She saw her first jackfruit at a local market. A closer inspection and taste piqued her curiosity about the fruit in the Indian diet. She learned that the majority of jackfruit grown there went to waste, and despite its various uses, the fruit wasn’t fulfilling its potential. Annie felt there had to be a way to use it to improve health, farmer’s livelihoods and our eco-footprint – so she did. Annie is a social entrepreneur – a business developer with a conscience. She used her new knowledge about jackfruit to develop it into a healthy main dish for vegans, vegetarians and anyone looking for nutritious meat replacements. It is soy, gluten, and cholesterol free. It is low calorie and rich in fiber, too. Because it is harvested before it ripens, there’s no sugar in the fruit. It adapts to and flavorings and looks like shredded meat, but it’s cruelty-free! PRODUCTS What is jackfruit? Jackfruit is a tropical fruit that is native to India. It is the largest tree-borne fruit found in the world and is a species of tree in the fig, mulberry, and family. A mature jackfruit tree can produce between 100-200 fruits per year, and a single Jackfruit can weigh up to 100 pounds. What does jackfruit taste like? What is it like? Young jackfruit (before it’s ripe) has a texture similar to pulled and a neutral flavor, so it takes on the flavor of whatever or it is cooked with, like our BBQ, Tex-Mex, Teriyaki, and Curry flavors. Ripe Jackfruit is tropically sweet, and has a flavor that tastes like a combination of /mango/pineapple. The flavor of “Juicy Fruit” gum is rumored to have been modeled after the flavor of ripe jackfruit. What are some of the key nutritional benefits of jackfruit? Young jackfruit is known to contain significant amounts of vitamin A and flavonoid pigments (carotene-ß, xanthin, lutein and cryptoxanthin-ß), offering antioxidant and vision support, as well as rich amounts of vitamin C and B-complex vitamins. Additionally, jackfruit is low in calories and sodium, and does not contain cholesterol or unhealthy . Additionally, ripe jackfruit is high in sugar, higher in calories, and has less fiber than young jackfruit. Ripe jackfruit is high in and manganese as well. Are there other environmental or socioeconomic reasons to choose jackfruit? Our founder, Annie, saw an opportunity to make a strong environmental and socioeconomic impact within India. The Jackfruit Company began with a mission to reclaim 70 percent of the jackfruit in India that was going to waste, and in the process has provided economic opportunities for more than 1,000 farming families. Through harvesting wild jackfruit, farmers gain the ability to have multiple income streams, and by converting their land to organic and selling organic jackfruit, they can garner a premium price for all crops they sell. Are your products gluten-free? Our frozen entrees are certified gluten-free with the exception of our Teriyaki flavored jackfruit. This preparation contains soy sauce, and therefore is not gluten-free. Are all of the ingredients organic? At this time, only our Lightly Seasoned Meal-Starter is 100% USDA certified organic. However, many of our products are made with organic ingredients. We are committed to continued work to ensure that all of our ingredients are organic. At this time, all of our products are Non-GMO verified or in process of being verified by the Non-GMO Project. Additionally, we take our commitment to organic a step further by taking steps and offering resources to help farmers in India convert to organic farming. Are your products vegan? A majority of The Jackfruit Company™ products are vegan; however, we have two Frozen Entrees that are vegetarian, our Enchilada Jackfruit Bowl and Pasta Jackfruit Bowl, as they do contain -based . Are your products dairy-free? Is the cheese you use plant-based? A majority of The Jackfruit Company™ products are dairy-free, however, we have two frozen entrees that contain dairy-based cheese (our Enchilada Jackfruit Bowl and Pasta Jackfruit Bowl).
