I can't imagine any other fruit being called the king of fruits. Ok, I'm partial to it because it is my favourite, but seriously, who can resist this luscious, juicy piece of heaven? And then there are so many varieties, Safeda (known as Benganpalli here in Bangalore) that is best eaten cut in cubes, Langda and Chausa which are oh so fragrant, Alphonso, Zarda, Mallika - even the names sound so inviting!
Anyway, as I savour the last batch of mangoes of this season, I don't mind the little extra layer of fat I have added on my belly over the summer. Totally worth it!
