Drooool...

(A good Filipino brand bag of dried mangoes will make the kind you get at supermarkets and health food stores taste like a bunch of dried twigs and autumn leaves)

Just remembered - we found a HUGE 1kg bag in the village of Haliburton, Ontario at Christmas (we've only seen small packets in London) and caned them. They lasted 3 days tops.
Believe it or not, genuine imported Philippine dried mangoes -- I've seen the same brand sold at MIA -- are regularly available at our local Costco store, and maybe yours too!
