Is there really another way to eat mango? Asking for a friend.
  • Slice both sides off the mango
  • Use the edge of a glass to separate the mango flesh from the skin
  • Take the chunk of mango in your hand and carefully cut it up with a blunt knife. Put the pieces of mango in a bowl.
  • Peel off the strip of skin left on the seed and eat the bit of mango that’s still attached to the seed.
  • Have a bath.
  • Eat the bowl of mango with a fork.
  • I use the glass method. It’s magic.
    Step 5 is the most important one!
    Absolutely. You cut on either side of the seed, so that you have one disc ( the seed) and then two big pieces on either side. Then you cut those into wedges and sort of eat the mango off the peel. This is a horrible description but I don’t understand how to explain it lol. [This] (imgur.com/a/7K2kt6H) is how it should look.

    This does make sense and I’ll be honest this is pretty much how my mom prepped it for me when I was a kid. When she grew up (she’s Carribean) she would just straight up grab one from the tree outside her house, slice open the top a bit and squeeze the mango almost into chunks inside the peel and would use it like it’s own container.

    Nowadays I do try to slice it up and remove the peel, but I’ll be completely honest I always make a damn mess of it

    Haha try it this way, it’s not too messy. But it does depend on how juicy the mango is. Do it on the kitchen counter so that you don’t make a mess somewhere else. And use a sharp knife I guess.
    I can work with this haha
    I don’t eat mangoes BECAUSE of this 😂 but anything mango flavoured I’ll devour 🤷‍♂️
    I skin and cut my mangoes off the seed, devour the fruit around the seed and throw it away along with the skin, clean up, then eat the cut up fruit. That way I can be as messy as I want then enjoy the rest of the fruit while being clean.
    I only eat watermelon like this. Mmm… I could go for one right now. Go across the street to the store, grab a watermelon quarter, go outside take my shirt off and just monchsceunchfgsbshehejejrbfbe and bathe in the sweet cold juice.

    grab a watermelon quarter,

    I pictured a unit of currency lol

    Grew up on a watermelon farm.

    This is the proper method of watermelon consumption.

    So that’s how it’s done.
    Why do people slice mango like that?
    You don’t have to put “Nobody:” before your joke, you can just say your joke.

    Careful. Mangoes have the same allergenic oil as poison ivy: medium.com/…/the-surprising-link-between-mango-an…

    I learned this the hard way when I basically ate one like in the image :(
