Breadfruit Tree Its Meat Tastes Like Mashed Potatoes and Milk
The breadfruit, a gift of the eastern tropics, is widely planted in the West Indies. It grows from cuttings, bears large glossy leaves, and the fruit tastes like mashed potatoes with milk when baked. It can be used in curries and as a vegetable with meat. The timber and bark have additional uses, and the sap can seal wooden pails and canoes. Wallace praised its delicate flavor and nutrition.
