I've tried to buy this twice from china through ebay. First time, I got very tiny seeds - I have no idea what the plant is. Second time, I got orange seeds.

I'd have kept trying but I found out that Jackfruit seeds lose viability very fast. So, even if the right seeds were sent, they'd be duds in the 2-3 months it takes to get to me.

Wanted to see if it could be used commercially as a meat replacement in pies.

I've purchased canned jackfruit before from asian supermarkets. Depending on where you live, this could be difficult, but your area may have an H-Mart. I personally wasn't a fan of the texture.
