        When life gives you mangos, don’t make mangonade. Make life take the mangos back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn mangos, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager!

      Ha, word for word the comment I wanted to make. Mangoes are truly S tier.

      And they allegedly (couldn’t find any real scientific studies, but tons of results like this) have an added benefit too, for any marijuana enthusiasts who may be around. https://autoflowering-cannabis.com/does-mango-make-you-higher/

    This is where you add layers to the problem by giving away mangoes. You give Alice two more mangoes than you give Gunther, and the dog steals one but you still have twelve mangoes. How many mangoes did Gunther get?

      Five.

      Started with 25, still have 12, need to account for 13.

      Dog took one, so that’s 12.

      If Alice and Gunther got the same number it would be 6 each.

      But she got 2 more than him, which is just a +1/-1 adjustment.

      So Alice got 7 and Gunther got 5.

      I accept “mangoes” because of the English rule that nouns that end in a consonant followed by a vowel should be padded with another vowel (“e”) before the “-s”. Another example I can think of off the top of my head is “heroes”, not “heros”.

      However, I also accept “mangos” because it feels right. Wiktionary says “mango” is Portuguese, and I don’t know Portuguese, but at least in Spanish you don’t pluralize with “-es”, just “-s”.

        Mango doesn’t exist in Portuguese. It’s written manga, a feminine gendered word, Portuguese being a gendered language.

        Plural mangas. Doesn’t really help, but there’s your linguistic TIL.

          My bad. Yeah, it’s interesting that we don’t seem to know why English calls it “mango” when every other language calls it “manga” or something else ending with the “-a”.

            A lot of words in English are mispronounced/misheard/misunderstood words of things that people from the UK didn’t recognize during their exploration eras, so they asked the locals and that’s what they told everyone it was. Eventually Aussies and Americans inherited these “mistakes”.

            By the time the error was found out everyone was calling it by the wrong name already, so it kinda stuck. Hell i speak Portuguese and when i speak in English i tend to say mangoes instead of mangas, even though the word mango came from the language i speak.

    You can turn these mangos into man-gones pretty quickly if you eat them on their own or with some Tajin seasoning; alternatively, you can’t have too much mango habenero sauce around the house. (I will admit that it is too spicy for me sometimes).

      There’s also mango milkshake, which is amazing and will use up a lot of mangoes, same with mango lassi/smoothie, and mango cheesecake is underrated.

      I’m sure I can think of recipes for that amount of mangoes, living in a place where mangoes are very common in the summer and eaten a lot, it’s just not a big amount.

      You can also make mango parfait or salad.

    Wait until they are fully ripe and then freeze them for smoothies!
