MANGO TASTINGS WITH FRIENDS EPISODE 6: WILL HE PLANT KAREN MICHELLE IN HIS GARDEN???

Описание: In this special episode of Mango Tastings With Friends, we get unexpected guests from Redland, Florida, who are interested in both mangoes and meditation. Let's see which varieties Will and Annie like! A special bonus for the most patient and interested in meditation at the end of the video...:)
We are also putting Karen Michelle up against the "top tier" mangoes like Orange Sherbet, Super Julie and Coconut Cream.

Disclaimer: We are creating mango tastings for the 2nd year in a row and feel like sharing the same disclaimer because we still see people arguing about taste. Like many things in life that cannot be ever measured in a lab, taste is one of them. It is purely a subjective experience involving one's cultural conditioning. Exposure to certain types of foods during our childhood days, special liking of other types of fruit or candies and finding hints of them in mangoes play very heavy on the type of mangoes one likes or dislikes.

Also, the same mango variety grown in different parts of Florida (or the world) will taste different depending on changes in microclimate, annual rainfall, soil health, soil mineral and salt content, fertigation regimen (irrigation+fertilization), etc. so blanket statements about a certain variety's taste aren't welcome. Lastly, mango picked early / not fully mature vs picked at the peak maturity changes how they ripen off of tree; often mangoes picked green, hard & immature eventually change color and look nice but will not get optimal sweetness (brix) or the complexity of flavor that makes mango such a unique and tasty fruit.

Please don’t make assumptions about a variety based on your tasting of a mediocre tasting fruit! Try fruit from different places, different microclimates at different stages of ripeness.

We don't think mangoes can be objectively rated from 1 to 10, as many variables play into it, but for the fun of it we have done it in some of our videos.
