I've been getting a box of organic veggies and fruits from Misfits Market* every two weeks. (If anyone wants a code, hmu! the prices are good if you already buy organic, or even if you don't and want some good stuff for a change, plus it's FUN) So I picked mangos in this box and got sent two of them.

Here's the thing: I've only ever had mango from the store in a plastic container, already sliced, and I thought I didn't like it because they sold them... not ripe, I guess? the ones I had before were hard and not juicy, with very little flavor.

Today I had a ripe organic mango for the first time and it was practically an orgasmic experience. I've never tasted fruit so good before.



*the produce from Misfits isn't really ugly at all. It's always delicious, and sometimes it's slightly funny looking.

I so feel you on this one. I thought I hated most tropical fruits because I'd only had them in the canned fruit salad variety. Turns out the fresh, ripe versions taste a whole lot better. <3

I've never met a papaya I liked, but maybe I'd like a fresh one?

That's the one that I still didn't like much even fresh. lol

But it's definitely worth trying to find out if the same holds for you.
