“Delish!
These don’t get sweeeeet
But are the best variety of mangoes in my opinion

Taste best 1–2 days after they get soft, not towards the end when they start getting black dots, which is the optimal time for Alphonso’ “

“break the stems off if you want them to ripen faster —
Leave em on for a slow burn.”
