Product Description:
Vero Tropical mango flavored lollipops. MANGO - MANGOS - MANGOES The mango is the most popular fruit in the world. The origin of the mango most likely lies in the Burma-Melanesian regions of Southeast Asia. The U.S. imports mangoes mainly from Mexico, Haiti and Guatemala from February through September. The flavor of the mango is described as a delicate blend of peach, pineapple and apricot flavors, the perfect mixture of sweet and sour. The flesh of the ripe mango has a buttery texture surrounding a large, flat, inedible seed in the center. The mango is a comfort food. Mangos really can make you feel better! Beyond being delicious and rich in vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants, mangos contain an enzyme with stomach soothing properties similar to papain found in papayas. These comforting enzymes act as a digestive aid and can be held partially responsible for that feeling of contentment. Mango is a very good tenderizing agent due to these same enzymes, therefore ideal to include in any marinade. An average sized mango can contain up to 40% of your daily fiber requirement. Mangos are also a great way to replenish that lost potassium. Deliciously rich in anti-oxidants, potassium and fiber - the mango is the perfect fruit! Mangos are an excellent source of Vitamins A and C, as well as a good source of Potassium and contain beta carotene. Mangos are high in fiber, but low in calories (approx. 110 per average sized mango), fat (only 1 gram) and sodium.
