I love mangoes. I love them because they're nice and sweet. At least most of the time. I love the lassie, the fruit, ice-cream, cake, biscuit, pudding - just name it. If it has mango in it, you'll find me next to it.

From Wiki:
"Mangoes have been cultivated in the Indian Subcontinent for thousands of years and reached East Asia between the 5th-4th century BC. By the 10th century AD, they were transported to East Africa and subsequently introduced to Brazil, West Indies and Mexico, where climate allows its appropriate growth.
The origins of mango are thought to have been from a plant from Malaysia, India and Indonesia. It probably was grown in southeast Asia before the seventh century, although the only references found are from Cambodia. The 14th century Muslim traveler, Ibn Battuta, reported it at Mogadishu."

I had recently gotten my hands on a Pakistani mango - as I eat it now, I think they're better than the ones I get from India. So big! So sweet!
But it's a heaty fruit - so don't eat too much of it.
