Begging your pardon, breadfruit, (we call it
langka here, and it's a personal favorite of mine), it's not like bread at all. It's the farthest thing from bread, for one if it's ripe it's yellowish and soft, if not you have to cook it (usually with coconut milk and ginger) and it results in something soft and chewy--maybe I can compare it to mung bean sprouts when overcooked--and not really bread-ish.
Though guys, being a nativist-when-it-comes-to-food type of person, who has no great liking of stepping foot in non-Filipino or Chinese pr Japanese restaurants, I have no idea of what an oatcake tastes like.
