That’s pretty neat. Humans can eat mangos too, right?

Jeb. They are fabulous if you get the right kind. The local ones are incredible. Never had one like it before. I can’t even put it into words the sweetness they have

Gotta be real. You could hunt me under that tree too... mangoes are amazing! Chop one up, mix with chopped red bell peppers and mint, slather that "salsa" onto a fish you cook and feast. SO GOOD!

I have been using them at the bait sites along with fermented pineapples. They can’t leave the stuff alone !!! My navy buddy who I hunt with here has a stand 150 yds away from mine. I had 6 pigs at mine he had 1 last night. Lol.
The pineapple out here hits different. It is actually allowed to ripen on the plant here since the Dole plantation is on Oahu. I have never tasted a pineapple Like these. The ones you guys get are a couple weeks from being ripe so if you eat pineapple. Let it ripen for a while. You want to be able to pull a leaf out easily and you should be able to smell the pineapple when you walk into the kitchen.

Oh Crap. I could survive on pineapples and mangoes so long as there was a good protein source too. I would just eat the bait pile DFA!
