Craving for something sweet and sour? A friend gave a pack of Dried Mangorind. It's a combination of both Dried mangoes and tamarind. Yes tamarind can be turned to candy.

This is one of my favorite aside from dried mangoes and tamarind.My sister who now lives in New Jersey USA always brings with her several bags of mangorind and dried mangoes as "pasalubong" or gifts from the Philippines to her friends.

That looks like something I'd like... I love sweet and sour taste - the more sour, the better...

Thanks. Oh that's cool about you liking sour stuff. @sishy7 . I love sour fruits too. The tamarind alone is sour. You can also try green Indian mangos, they're very sour, and best eaten with shrimp paste (bagoong as it's called locally). Just make sure you're not allergic to shrimp

Yes, it really is. You can have a try when you come to the Philippines, or when you visit a Filipino store there in the US @jstory07
