Question

Which fruit is recognized as the national fruit of Bangladesh?

Hint:

This large tree fruit is eaten both unripe as a vegetable and ripe as a sweet fruit in Bangladesh.

Answer 1

The answer is jackfruit.

1. Bangladesh has a warm and humid climate that suits jackfruit trees very well.
2. The fruit is a regular part of the local diet, eaten both raw and ripe.
3. Its large size and year round availability made it a natural choice as a national symbol.
4. The government of Bangladesh officially recognizes jackfruit as the national fruit of the country.

Jackfruit is also grown widely in India and other South Asian countries, but it holds official national status specifically in Bangladesh.
