I also love mangos. I wonder whether that's because I didn't live through the cultural revolution? :D

Well, first, one would have had to try mangoes. Although I'd heard of them, I'd never had one until I met my friend. So me, born in the USA, might love mangoes because of the cultural revolution. :)

Doesn't everyone love mangoes?

I don't. I find them of little interest and debatable taste. Alongside pomelo it's one of the fruits I like least (of those I've eaten, I won't pretend an encyclopedic knowledge of fruits and there are many fruits I haven't tried yet, durian being pretty high on that list)

Durian is quite nice, as far as I remember, but the smell is something else.

The better durians have more bearable smell.

Plenty of people have mango allergies.
