I just got a mango. What do I do with it?

Want to trade your mangoe for my pigs feet?

What do you do with a mango? (rhetorical question).
Eat it, of course!
I generally slit it in quarters, skin it with a very sharp knife and cut
as much of the meat as I can away from the clingstone pit.  Pretty slimy
to touch, but don't let it faze you.
Serve chipped up in an iced compote for fancy.
You can also sprinkle on some fresh lime juice for a change and/or some
grated fresh coconut.
Enjoy!
What do mangoes taste like?  Mangoes!
Regards,
John Winterton.

I believe you can eat it raw when it's ripe....great fruit.
