Mango Flower

Hey all!
Okay, this post is going to be about...FRUIT!! I must say, when Anne offered me canned peaches with breakfast this morning, I refused. Why eat canned peaches in a place where you can eat mango, green oranges, and bui? I also drink mango juice with breakfast. Quite yummy.

The best way to eat a mango, however, is not sliced, not even cubed. No. The best way to eat a mango is a mango flower. I will now teach you how to make one.
Step 1: Get an average sized mango (well actually, any size mango)
Step 2: Cut the mango not in half, but long ways pretty close to the pit. If you hit the pit, you get an undsiralbe dent in the center. So avoid that.
Step 3: Holding the pitless piece of mango in your palm, take a fairly sharp (not too sharp, or it will cut through the skin, but not too dull or it will make your mango mush) and slice all across teh mango horizontally, being careful NOT TO CUT THROUGH THE SKIN, then do the same vertically.
Step 4: Push the skin of your lasserated mango upward. The pieces will all separate, but not come off the skin.

To eat this lovely mango flower, you take your teeth and scrape the luscious fruit off the skin. Warning: if you are trying to look dignified, DO NOT EAT A MANGO FLOWER! The fruit will simply get all over your face and make you very sticky. Mango flowers are an acceptable snack in rather uncivilized company. Enjoy!
