You are probably right.  These mangoes look a lot like the really sweet
pickling mangoes of Vietnam and Hawaii.  They are certainly a seasonal
treat!  When I was in Africa, I learned a mango eating technique.  Place
the mango on a flat surface like a cutting board, and cut into it all
around (score it) with a big knife.  Then pull the two sides apart.  The
pit will remain in one side only.  Then use your fingers (or if necessary,
your teeth) to hold the pit in place, and twist the other half to release
the pit.  Then eat what remains in the peel with a spoon.  These Yellow
Mangoes are perfect for that dessert technique.  Rob
