Sunday morning, a time for food discussion

Intern Kiki found a very nice article on the fact that Indian mangoes have had a ban lifted on them and are becoming available around the NJ/NY area. As the article you'll read points out, Indian mangoes are sweeter, less stringy and more juicy than the Mexican mangoes Americans are so used to buying. So head on down to Newark Avenue and India Square right here in Jersey City and track down some of these supposedly superior mangoes.

Do YOU have a mango recipe you'd like to share?
