Make the Most of Mangos

  • Mangos contain more than 20 different vitamins and minerals, are an excellent source of vitamins C and A and a good source of dietary fiber.
  • Color is not the best indicator of ripeness. Simply squeeze the mango gently to determine ripeness level. A ripe mango should give slightly, but not be too soft.
  • To ripen mangos, store at room temperature. Once ripe, store mangos in the refrigerator for up to five days.
