Mango

SNAPSHOT

Description: More mangos are eaten than any other fruit! Mangos deliver a host of nutrients and make healthy eating a delightful sensory experience. The versatile mango is available year round and adds delicious flavor to a balanced diet.

Mangos vary in shape depending upon their variety. Their skin may be green, yellow, orange, red, or any combination of these colors. Fibrous yellow-to-orange flesh is found beneath its thin, tough skin. Each fruit has a flat, stringy pit.

Taste: Very sweet and juicy.

Selection: Choose fruit that yields to gentle pressure. Avoid fruit with grayish discoloration.

Ripening: Determine the ripeness of mango by either smelling or squeezing it. A ripe mango will have a full, fruity aroma emitting from the stem end. Mangos can be considered ready to eat when slightly soft to the touch and yielding to gentle pressure, like a ripe peach.
