My OH eating kiwi fruit is disgusting. He cuts them in half, then squeezes them out of the skin into his mouth. Obviously you can only do this when they're pretty ripe, and the juice goes EVERYWHERE . And he eats about 3 or 4 in a row!!!!!

Thats exactly how I eat mine................................but always have difficulty with a mango..............end up with it over my nose, down my chin and juice dripping all over my top!!

CasG

I love mangos....and they love me too.....all over me

toandfro

thats why there called bath tub fruit ,I can clean a mango so the pip looks washed :scared:

CasG

How do you do that then?

toandfro

one of two ways if they are really ripe the wash and eat like an apple when you get to the pip you drag your teeth over it at just the right tension to squeeze the last drops of juice and flesh from the fibres sucking hard as you go . now if you have a ripe but not really ripe then you need to slice of the cheeks and cut into squares for visual goto http://www.wildoats.com/u/department173/
peel the skin from around the pip drag though teeth same with the rest of the skin when you've eaten the flesh.then repeat above pip proceedure

CasG

Don't know what is more of a palava.....doing all that...or having a shower after

toandfro

now thats where you need a spouse who also loves mango then no shower is needed,and once you've practiced you can down a mango in seconds without losing a drop
