Which do you prefer??? Green mango or ripe mango?

Hi Sutan, I tried to eat a green mango about 16 years ago, and I thought if this is mango's what is every one raving about, It reminded me of when I was a small child and said a bad word and my mother washed my mouth out with soap. I started working with some Filipinos, who quickly became my friends and they offered me a piece of Mango, No thanks and explained about the sour taste, They had a great laugh and said try a ripe mango. I was a bit leery but I was sure they wouldn't steer me wrong and I had a ripe mango. There is no other fruit in the world that I would pay $1.65. But if it was lovely ripe mango oh yes I would. As well they treated me to many Filipino foods and customs, I was invited to all their party's. and community events. Oh yes they were also always trying to get me to marry some nice Filipino gentleman. but I just wasn't interested in getting married, so they gave up. Leaving them was my one big regret in moving away from Yellowknife.

I prefer the ripe one. As a matter of fact, I always make sure to have those sweet mangoes nicely stacked in my fridge. I will use it to make mango cake and mango shake. I rarely eat green mango. But I wouldn't mind the green mango shake. Yeah, Boracay's shake is heavenly.

I love the ripe mangos. I have tried several varieties and enjoyed all of them. However, the green ones cause me to have an asthma attack so I stay away from them now.

I prefer the ripe mangoes too. Especially when they are in season and from Zambales. I think the mangoes are sweeter there. But they say there are other varieties of mangoes that are more tasty. By the way, wanted to thank you again for the hearts. They are beautiful. I love it really! And thank you for adding me as a friend! Have a great day!(^^,)

I prefer ripe. Did you know there are many varieties of mango? I have only tried non ripe by accident. I don't know why anyone would enjoy the taste of that. Ripe mango shakes are awesome!!! I have always wanted to try mango chutney but have not come across any so far.

To tell you the true I don't like either one. thst is the one fruit I don't like. I love fruit though especially straw-berries and bananas.

I think I have are one mango and it was ripe not tried any other, My grand daughter likes it the baby food fruit selection

I prefer ripe and sweet mangoes. Mango is one of the favourite fruit of mine. I also like mango pulp very much. I always have mangoes in my fridge in summer. Green mangoes taste good when you make pickles from it. I love mango pickle.

I really love magoes and i prefer to eat the ripe one. but if it shake.. green mango is the best!

I love eating ripe mango also especially to eat it with the plain ice cream which give me a fantastic taste.

i like them both, when in season you can always find green and ripe mangoes on my fridge.

i love the ripe ones. green mangoes are good with bagoong (fish/shrimp paste). i havent tried mom's green mango salad, but she told me that it's really good. also the green mango shakes are also delicious as my sister said... maybe i'd try it one of these days.

I like ripe mangoes to eat. Also at times i like to have mango pulp. In my house, my mom and my dad like to have green mango pickles, but i just hate it.

I don't like mangoes, have never liked them ever since I was a kid. I love the juice rather.

That's a very difficult choice because I love them both. I love ripe mangoes because they're sweet and juicy. I love green mangoes because they're sour-bitter and crunchy. Yummmm... makes my mouth water. hehehe

Yosh!1 I love mangoes! Actually, I like the ripe ones better. I'd prefer the green ones if they're not too sour.. Have you eaten indian mangoes too? They're delicious! Ahihi... Yeah, green mango shake tastes different from the ripe one. My mom actually says it's more delicious. Haha.. When I eat green mangoes or indian mangoes, I usually dip it in bagoong, or soy sauce... I like mango shakes and put ripe mangoes as toppings on an ice cream or grahams cake my mom used to make...^_^

i'll prefer the ripe one. i donno how will the rip one tastes as i have taken a drink made out of that ripe mangoes only called, PANNA. i like that, no doubt, its very tasty, but nothing as ina drink apart from that.

Ripe mangoes yummy yummy. I prefer them cause - The fruit flesh of a ripe mango contains about 15% sugar, up to 1% protein, and significant amounts of vitamins A, B and C. The taste of the fruit is very sweet, with some cultivars having a slight acidic tang; it tastes roughly like a cross between a peach and a pineapple.

I prefer the ripe mango especially those from San Marcelino Zambales or from Cebu. It's tasty and delicious! :)
