      First of all I am THE objective authority about eating mangoes and that is not up for debate thank you very much. As much is my goddamn birthright.

      Secondly it depends on the breed of mango.

      Now idk what kinds exist everywhere in the world but I do know that theres several legitimate ways to eat the varieties found in India and Pakistan.

      If you can ever get your hands on em try one of the Pakistani breeds.

      • Chaunsa (white, sweet and black)- the best stuff imo.
      • Dusehri-great texture.
      • Anwar Ratol- small, sweet, very flavourful. Short shelf life.
      • Sindhri- queen of mangoes.

      Theres also badshah pasand which I believe Shah Jahan loved and was pissed his son Aurangzeb was taking some of his. (Mughal Emperors and my ancestors as it so happens)

      • Cutting into slices is acceptable, skin on.
      • Cutting into cups is acceptable for kids (and me)
      • Squishing them when skin on to pulp them and then breaking the little black nipple tk suck out the pulp is acceptable for certain varieties. Anwar Ratol for example.
      • Cutting into skinless squares to be eaten with forks will be allowed so long as you do it with shame.

              I usually just give up any sense of civility and get my face in there. I have yet to find an efficient way of eating mango that does not result in X-rated mangolingus action with my beard dripping with mango juice.

                You cut it there, twist to open, pull out the 'seed?' and eat it with a spoon.

                The skin of the mango is the cup itself.

                  The seed pullout is the step I didn’t think was possible. Will give it a try, thanks!

                    Oh yeah need the right breed of mangoes for this to work, need a thick skin and easy to remove seed.

                    One thing that works for me is pulling it out with my teeth instead of hands, also a lil twist to loosen it first.

                        Peel it, then slice it. I tend to leave a lot of flesh on the seed so i can eat from it.

                            Over the sink, peeling as you go, possibly also high

                              The reverse hedgehog.

                              Remarkably easy to do and looks fancy:

                              Cut sides of mango like you'd fillet a fish.

                              Cut a square grid into each mango fillet

                              Pop it out from the bottom and all the delicious chunks of mango thrust themselves outward ready to be devoured. 👍

                              Stick a fork into the bottom of the remaining slab of mango containing the seed peel the skin off and you've got yourself a mango pop! Kids love em!

                                • Cutting into slices is acceptable, skin on.

                                Then I read the rest of your comment. I no longer believe that your opening statement was inaccurate in any way.

                                        thick skin and easy to remove seed

                                        This offends me for some reason but I can't quite put my finger on it...
