mango
I love mangoes! Fresh mangoes and dried mango pieces are both things I eat a lot of but dont get tired of. Mango juice is lovely too.
The Mango (Mangifera indica) is an evergreen tropical tree that grows very large (30 metres high) and are long lived (hundreds of years).
Interestingly it is considered to be an evolutionary anachronism, in which the original dispersal agent for the seed/stones was some now extinct herbivorous megafauna mammal. Humans have taken over in that regard (although vast majority of mango trees are vegetative prorogation grafted onto rootstocks) with many different cultvars grown commercially across the tropical and subtropical world. Total world production is ~60 million tonnes ... if my maths is correct then that is 0.0075 tonnes of mango per person in world (assuming world population of 8 billion) ....which is 7.5 kg per person. That shows how widely it is eaten in the world! I do get more than my fair share though!
