Experience the exotic flavor of mangos, the world's most popular fruit.   From sweet to spicy, there's a mango to please any palate and a mango recipe to suit every mood. Take a taste vacation with mangos and discover a new world of flavor.

Mangos originated in Southeast Asia and India, where references to the fruit are documented in Hindu writings dating back to 4000 B.C.  Buddhist monks cultivated the fruit and the mango is considered to be a sacred fruit in the region because it is said that Buddha himself meditated under a mango tree.  Mango seeds traveled with humans from Asia to the Middle East, East Africa and South America beginning around 300 or 400 A.D.  Mango trees need a tropical climate to thrive, and today a majority of the mangos sold in the U.S. are grown near the equator in countries like Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, Guatemala and Haiti.
