Featured Fruit Product: Mango
The mango originated in Southeast Asia where it has been grown for over 4,000 years.
Over the years mango groves have spread to many parts of the tropical and sub-tropical
world, where the climate allows the mango to grow best. Most of the mangos sold in the
United States are imported from Mexico, Haiti, the Caribbean and South America. Today
there are over 1,000 different varieties of mangos throughout the world. Mangoes
account for approximately fifty percent of all tropical fruits produced worldwide.
The ripe fruit is variable in size and color, and may be yellow, orange, red or green.
When ripe, the unpeeled fruit gives off a distinctive sweet smell. The flavors are
delicious and aromatic, and the fruit is high in sugars and acid. In India they are
known as "the king of fruits" and this popular fruit can be used in an extensive range
of food and beverage applications.
