The more popular big yellow mangoes are called Carabao Mangoes and we also enjoy these unripe; green and so sour we eat it with our famous, if not infamous (because of the smell) "bagoong", a kind of condiment made of fermented tiny fish or shrimp.
There are many kinds of mangoes in the Philippines that finding a particular kind grown only in a specific place is but common. If you happen to be in my hometown of Cavite, "supsupin", the humble half of a palm's size mangoes are so sweet. You just peel then suck ("supsup") all the goodness of the fruit, succulent and fibrous, you would end up finding the fibres in between your teeth, and that adds up to the fun.
