Philippines is known as the leading exporter of the sweetest and finest mango. They say that Philippine mango is one of a kind when it comes to sweetness and taste. I agree with that and I'm so proud of it. It's just so sad that the production of mangoes in the Philippines is getting lower every year. Some factors why is the frequent calamities in the country, the latest is the Yolanda (haiyan) attack which destroyed large part of Visayas where big plantations of mangoes can be found. Another reason why is because of modernization. Every year, hectares of cultivated lands are being converted to processing zones. We can't stop these from happening, let's just hope that at least what's left could be kept maintained.
Mango is rich in Vitamin C. It's one of the favorite "pulutan" (side dish) of most men while drinking beer or liquor, one of the best toppings of refrigerator cake, and it is the most favorite shake of most Filipinos.
This mango recipe is popular in the Philippines and it's called "mangga at alamang" (mango in shrimp paste). It is something similar to ensalada recipe where raw mango is dipped in alamang.
