So I bought some magazine at the grocery store, and was reading about how healthy mangoes are for you, and also something about helping you to keep from gaining weight. Of course, I have no clue if that''s true, but thought I''d give them a try. I''d never been interested in trying one before.
So I bought one, and let it ripen, I thought. I now know it was still a tad green when I ate it, so dismissed the peculiar flavor. Bought some again, and definitely let them get ripe. I just ate one for brekkie. Both times, when I first get it in my mouth and start chewing, it has this almost medicinal taste. It only lasts a second or two, and then the sweetness kicks in. Is this how other people taste them? I''d like to eat them for the possible health benefits, but, they''re not so much fun as other fruits. I mean, fruit should be fun, right?
