Well, I have not (yet) tried sitting in a bath but, IMHO, the best place to eat a mango is while sitting on the tree. And preferably the a tree in a compound that you are not supposed to be in. Additional delight is provided when you can see the old woman, whose house is in the compound, peeking out of her window trying to make sure no kids are trying to sneak into her compound. And the type of mango? Surely, it is got to be the 'sucking' mango found in E.Africa. All you have to do is bite a little bit of the bottom tip off, press the mango and all the juices squirt into your mouth. Then your go for the next one.......... This 'sucking' mango is so sweet that not a drop will escape you or run down your arm. And anyway, the best way is not to have mango juice on your hands unless you want to be attacked by the red or black ants, depending what tree you are on.
