Mango or Ma Muang ?


The local name of mango in Thailand is Ma Muang.
One of the great fruits of Thailand with a special reputation all its own. There are many varietes which when ripe, can be halved and eaten with a spoon. Many feel the best way to enjoy mango is with sticky rice and coconut milk, a popular Thai dessert. Others prefer to eat half ripened mago, by dipping the crunchy slices in sugar. The juice from the mango is deliciously refreshing.

Season of manggo in Thailand became March to June.

Rarely does one find a country with so much variety of fruit as Thailand.
