Jackfruit
Jackfruit is one of the biggest and most impressive fruits grown in most tropical countries. It is the national fruit of Bangladesh. Recently it has become a popular cash crop in Uganda, especially in Busoga region where it does very well. In other parts of the country jackfruit population is steadily dropping down as people cut it down to make charcoal. The jackfruit is the largest edible tree-grown fruit. The fruit is unusual as it is borne on the main branches and the trunks, occasionally even from surface roots of the tree. Within the fruit is a fibrous material called the rags. Embedded among the rags are numerous arils, the golden and richly flavoured flesh of the jackfruit. Within each aril is a seed. Seeds are surrounded by a tough skin. The seeds are edible and nutritious. They contain 38% carbohydrates, 6.6% proteins and 0.4% fats. Many recipes can be prepared from it.
Grapes
Grapes are among the most popular fruits in the world. They are eaten as fresh fruits, but are even better appreciated when fermented into white or red wine. With a unique combination of crunchy texture and sweet, tart flavour, grapes have gained extreme popularity throughout the world. Grape is the second most popular fruit after oranges. It can be eaten as a refreshing snack as well as used in vegetable and fruit salads. It can be consumed in fresh or preserved form. It can be canned in jellies, crushed to prepare juices or wines and dried to prepare raisins.
Grape growing is one of the largest food industries in the world.
