Mango Fields of Kenting

Just returned from a trip to Kenting, a beach-y area on the southern tip of Taiwan.  Kenting is covered with mango fields--on mountains, in valleys, along roads.  I decided to check one out.  Workers were wrapping the fruit in protective bags.  Taiwan seems to really be into non-toxic pest control.  In Yilan they use styrofoam to wrap the guavas.

Welcome to the work week, everyone!  My mind is still at the beach...

Thank you for teaching me they CAN be eaten with the skin. I did it roadside, inviting the usual Taiwanese stares
