Some interesting facts about mangoes are that they are the apple of the tropics. Did you know the mango is the most commonly eaten fruit in tropical countries around the globe? Well, they most certainly are and if you've ever eaten one you know why! Mangoes are just delicious! They are a cross between a peach and an apple with a bite of pineapple squeezed in for good measure. A mango is high in sugars and acid BUT they are also high in Vitamin A. Mangoes even contain beta carotene, lots of great minerals and some Vitamin C!! Choosing a mango with a lot of Vitamin A is easy, just pick one that is a darker orange and you'll hit the jackpot.
