List of Fruits That Contain J

1

Feijoa

Acca sellowiana

A small green ovoid fruit (also called pineapple guava) with intensely fragrant, jelly-textured flesh — a New Zealand orchard staple but virtually unknown elsewhere because it doesn't ship.

2

Jabuticaba

Plinia cauliflora

A Brazilian wonder fruit that grows directly on the trunk and branches of its tree — dark purple berries that look like grapes glued onto bark, with mild grape-lychee flavor and a brief shelf life.

3

Jackfruit

Artocarpus heterophyllus

The largest tree-borne fruit in the world — up to 35 kg — with sweet yellow flesh when ripe and a meaty texture used as a vegan meat substitute when unripe.

4

Jalapeno

Capsicum annuum

A medium-hot Mexican chili pepper with thick walls and bright vegetal heat — eaten fresh, pickled, smoked into chipotles, or stuffed and breaded.

5

Jambul

Syzygium cumini

A purple-black Indian summer fruit (also called jamun, java plum) with bright purple juice that stains everything — a beloved street snack and a classic Ayurvedic remedy for diabetes.

6

Japanese Plum

Prunus salicina

An East Asian plum species that's the basis for most modern American supermarket plums — large, juicy, with red or yellow skin and easily separated flesh from a small pit.

7

Jostaberry

Ribes × nidigrolaria

A 1970s German hybrid combining blackcurrant and gooseberry — thornless, vigorous, productive, and almost unknown commercially despite decades of championing by horticulture writers.

8

Jujube

Ziziphus jujuba

A small Asian fruit (also called Chinese date or red date) that turns from apple-crisp green to wrinkled-skinned brown-red as it dries — eaten fresh, dried, or simmered in tonics.

9

Juniper Berry

Juniperus communis

Not actually a berry but the female cone of the juniper tree — a small dark blue spice used for centuries to flavor gin, game meats, and northern European preserves.
