    The reverse hedgehog.

    Remarkably easy to do and looks fancy:

    Cut sides of mango like you’d fillet a fish.

    Cut a square grid into each mango fillet

    Pop it out from the bottom and all the delicious chunks of mango thrust themselves outward ready to be devoured. 👍

    Stick a fork into the bottom of the remaining slab of mango containing the seed peel the skin off and you’ve got yourself a mango pop! Kids love em!

    According to my Hispanic fiancé, you must eat it like a savage animal, tearing at its flesh while it’s juices drip down your chin.

    But you eat it over the sink because we’re not barbarians.

    I cut it up, then messily eat what is left on the pit, standing over the sink. Then wash my face and prissily eat the cut pieces with chopsticks or a fork.

    In Guadalupe I learned the manner of consuming mango ‘a titi maman’ (mother’s breasts). You massage the fruit through the skin, then make a small hole in the skin and then suck the liquified flesh through the hole.

    This only works with super ripe fruits, like you would be finding on a Carribean island.

    It’s not the most practical but as mango consuming method relevant to the thread.

    Peel it and smush it into your face whole. Wear swimmers. Then go for a swim.

    Edit: works best with a Kensington Pride. Dunno why you’d choose anything else, really, unless you’ve already eaten all the Kensington Prides.

    Cut either side of the seed, then slice into cube things and invert the skin giving you little squares to suck off

    The superior way is to eat it like corn on the cob. Start at the pointier end and chew straight back to the mangonus. Don’t forget to smother it in butter after shucking the husk.

    The traditional way. Peel it and look directly into the camera as you slowly lick the peels.
