Interesting Stuff! :O!
The mango is known as the 'king of fruit' throughout the world
The name 'mango' is derived from the Tamil word 'mangkay' or 'man-gay'. When the Portuguese traders settled in Western India they adopted the name as 'manga' ....lOl mangay
The Mango tree plays a sacred role in India; it is a symbol of love and some believe that the Mango tree can grant wishes..<---TRY THAT!
Hindus may also brush their teeth with mango twigs on holy days (be sure to rinse well and spit if you try this at home - toxic (imagine dying from brushing your teeth)
Many Southeast Asian kings and nobles had their own mango groves; with private cultivars being sources of great pride and social standing, hence began the custom of sending gifts of the choicest mangos (give me mangos)
Burning of mango wood, leaves and debris is not advised - toxic fumes can cause serious irritation to eyes and lungs >.<
Mango leaves are considered toxic and can kill cattle or other grazing livestock
wow...mangos are deadly
