Mango Eating Tip

There are many ways to eat a mango.  Some people like to peel them and eat the flesh as if it were a banana, but unlike bananas, mangos secrete a lot of juice and they have a pit in their centers, which is why we suggest you cut it instead.


Want to try something different?

Though mangos are wonderful all by themselves, you can also cook with them in many of your favorite recipes.

Their extraordinary flavor makes mangos a great complement to refreshing drinks like smoothies and margaritas.  They also add a sweet twist to chicken and seafood recipes.

Champagne® Mangos have a thin pit in their core.  When you slice them, be careful not to cut through it.

 

 

 

 


1.  Start by holding the mango with the smaller end facing up and stem-side down.  Cut the mango in half by slicing off its sides, discarding the pit.


 

 

 


2.  Gently cut slices on each half, in a crisscross pattern, but do not cut through the skin.

 

 

 

 


 

3.  Press gently on the skin, pushing the mango cubes out.
