3Sounds very yummy. I can't wait to try it.
4Different.
5Yeah, but how do you peel a mango?
6Yay!
7Really? This is earth friendly? Maybe if you live in California. My local farmers markets don't start until late spring/summer. And even then avocados and mangoes come over 1000 miles away. Also mangoes in California are grown in the desert...where they have to ship in water...to an area experiencing a wide-spread drought...this doesn't sound very earth friendly to me.
