These Vegan Barbecue Tacos are crazy good! It looks like they are made with real meat right?! Well, the "pulled pork" is actually a fruit call Jackfruit. Jackfruit comes from Southeast Asia, and it's becoming more popular has veganism spreads. It's perfect as a meat substitute because:

1. Jackfruit has no flavor, which means you can cook it in any sauce or season it however you want!
2. It has the texture of pulled pork!
3. It is easy to find at any health food store, or order Jackfruit online (like I do!)

I build my taco by starting with a corn tortilla (my favorite!), the barbecue mixture, pickled cabbage, avocado, red pepper flakes or jalapenos, and of course salsa on the side.
