Bini Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 Yellow mangoes!? Seriously, if you haven't already and you live in a non-tropical location like me (Utah) -- stock up! They are the TASTIEST fruit you'll ever eat! If you have an international store, go there but I actually grabbed a bunch at Costco and can't wait to devour them. Get them greenish and then let them ripen on your countertop for a few days until they're yellow and soft to touch. Mmm! Ang sarap! And that is all for your public announcement :) Quote
Backroads Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 No, I refuse to stock up on yellow mangos. Everytime someone buys a yellow mango, a banana, a tasty nutritious fruit, is completely ignored. Quote
Guest Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 I got 2 boxes of Cabello brand yellow mangoes from Hong Kong Market... 4 days later - they were all eaten. So yeah, I gotta stock up on those - then lock it in my bedroom closet! Sarap talaga! Quote

Suzie Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 Mangoes are such a diverse fruit! Love them! Quote
NeuroTypical Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 Stocking up on yellow mangoes today, is like stocking up on pickled pig's feet a hundred years ago. Wait - not it's not. What was I thinking? Quote
Guest Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 (edited) Here's for your mouth-watering pleasure, Bini!Okay, so it's not as great as the Philippine mangoes... but, it's close enough! Edited April 6, 2011 by anatess Quote

NeuroTypical Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 Mangoes give my diabetes a migraine! Quote
Guest SisterofJared Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 The very term "stocking up" implies buying more than you need or can use. Therefore it is impossible to "stock up" on honey mangoes. Because no matter how many I buy, believe me, I CAN eat them all... and rather quickly! mmmmmmmmmmm., good! Quote
kev_stevens67 Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 Hmmm - I never tried them before. I'll have to check Walmart and Sams Club down here in Florida. Quote
Backroads Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 I believe in a world where boys and girls will be able to eat whatever fruit they would like and also critcize mangos... Quote
Guest SisterofJared Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 'Twould be an evil world indeed where people are allowed to criticize mangos. Eat what you may, but none of this false propaganda stuff!! Quote
Backroads Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 False propaganda? Excuse me? Here's proof that this isn't proganda: Mangos aren't that great according to ME. Quote
Dravin Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 I hate mangos YUCK!!!!!! Not sure how can anyone eat themI've never had a good fresh mango (I like dried and juice). But I grew up in Alaska and live in Utah, neither of which are known for their mango groves. You know, I'm kinda glad I didn't serve my mission somewhere with amazing cheap fruit like Southeast Asia or South America/Mexico. I'm afraid it would have ruined my tastebuds for what I usually encounter. Quote
Guest SisterofJared Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 Dravin, many fresh mangoes are "iffy"... too many just don't pack that wonderful sweetness you find in a yummy mango juice. But the yellow honey mangoes are pretty much always good. Divine. I'm certain they are the food of the Gods. In fact, here is what the gods enjoy most: garlic onions mushrooms and honey mango. Other foods are perfectly acceptable, especially those things that grow from a seed. But those particular 4 items are the Chosen Foods. Of course there are also other Chosen Foods, herbs, like Cilantro, and Basil. These things God designed in perfection for our enjoyment and nourishment. All of foods pale in comparison, and it is sacreligion to try and place other foods above the Chosen Foods. Quote
Dravin Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 You are a brave woman to leave Theobroma cacao off the list. Quote
Guest Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 (edited) Hmmm - I never tried them before. I'll have to check Walmart and Sams Club down here in Florida.DO NOT get this mango:This is not the one we're talking about... and it's what you would usually find in Walmart or Sam's.It's better if you go to an Asian Food Store and buy THIS mango: Edited April 6, 2011 by anatess Quote
Backroads Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 ... I might just have to take the advice. I always got the mango in the first picture... the apparently bad mango. ... I feel lost. Quote
Dravin Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 I know it's silly of me, but I'm amused by the thought of going to the Asian food store to buy the Mexican Grown mango. Quote
