FRUIT: New in the produce aisle

What is that new spiky fruit that has appeared in the produce section? It's called a jackfruit.
Wikipedia tells us that jackfruit comes from a tree native to southwest India -- indeed, it's the national fruit of Bangladesh and Sri Lanka -- and is commonly used in South and Southeast Asian cuisines. Its flavor is described as "a combination of apple, pineapple, mango, and banana."
"It can be used to make a variety of dishes, including custards, cakes, or mixed with shaved ice as es teler in Indonesia or halo-halo in the Philippines. For making the traditional breakfast dish in southern India, idlis, the fruit is used with rice as an ingredient and jackfruit leaves are used as a wrapping for steaming. Jackfruit dosas can be prepared by grinding jackfruit flesh along with the batter."
Though curious, I have not yet purchased one because they're the size of a watermelon, too big for my small household.
