The ‘Plango’ is here. Is it making your mouth water yet?

April 23rd, 2015

Mangoes are the best thing about summer. They are the ideal treat for a hot day. Well, almost. We all love the gooey King of fruits, but the mess it causes can sometimes be off-putting. Now, what if you had a fruit that tasted and looked exactly like the mango, but had none of the messiness associated with it? Enter, the Plango: Scientific name – Bouea macrophilia. Origin – Thailand! This ‘individual’ fruit has been produced by expert growers working in close association with the Marks & Spencer’s over the past few years trying to develop a hybrid fruit between the Mango and Plum

So, what is that makes the Plango so special? Following the launch of Papple Pear (an apple tasting like a pear) back in 2012, it does seem we will continue to try and see new and exciting fruits in the coming year. So how much we all know about this new Fruit, well:

The texture of the fruit is slightly firmer than that of plum

In terms of taste, it reminds you of Alphonso Mango.

So having a firmer texture and being edible with skin on It does promise you a dribble and drip-free bite, without any irritating fibres that stick to your teeth.

For Size the plango is much shorter than an actual mango though – just 5cm in diameter and 10 cm in length

The plango has already been in stores for a couple of weeks at stores Having said that we all know kids are fussy eaters and sometimes got bored having the same fruit all the times especially School lunch packs, however trying new fruits and by making fruit fun and exciting you can make your children’s fall in love with fruit like Fresh Fruit salad with Berry sauce or Peaches with Strawberry sauce are few to mention to enjoy your 5 a day.
