There are at least two ways of eating a mango.  One is to
peel it with a sharp knife; the skin should be taken off
in strips about 3/8" wide and 2-3" long.  The mango flesh
can then be cut close to the stone, and if you are like me,
you will enjoy getting the last bits of the stone by sucking
it.  If the mango is of the very soft, juicy variety, 
get lots of napkins, bite a small hole in the skin, and suck 
out the juice through the hole.
Bon appetit!
