It tastes and has a consistency similar to a potato. Mostly, it's
starchy. The one time I made it, it was baked in foil. You can eat it
with butter. It's mostly the Samoans that eat breadfruit over here. I
don't know why it's not more popular since it doesn't taste bad and a
tree yields a large quantity of big fruit.
