This fruit is often mistaken for mango city people do not dare to eat, but some people regard it as super delicious

In some southern cities in China, such as Guangzhou, Foshan and Nanning, at the beginning of the last century, the urban greening practice of "fruit on the street" was to plant fruit trees as road greening trees. So now in these cities, you can often see very tall fruit trees. Among them, there are no more green varieties than mango trees. every summer, the fruit trees on the street are so fruitful that the eaters drool all over the place. For foodie, the biggest concern is whether these mangoes can be picked and eaten.

First of all, it should be clear that the green mango in the city is not the common mango on the market, but a kind of fruit called almond. Almond is often mistaken for mango, mainly because its shape is very similar to mango, if not the local people, you can hardly see the difference between them. Mangoes are delicious, as we all know, almonds are not necessarily delicious. In particular, the almond trees planted in the city absorb a lot of pollutants such as car exhaust, dust and heavy metals, and city people dare not eat them. Occasionally, when I see someone picking almonds, they will be discouraged from picking almonds.

In addition, in order to prevent the adverse effects of diseases and insect pests on the urban environment, workers regularly spray pesticides on almond trees. These pesticides are different from those sprayed on other fruit trees, because they do not have to consider the problem of consumption, so they are likely to contain more pesticide residues and are not recommended for consumption. Some of the almonds in the city were fed to the birds in the trees, and some of them fell when they matured and were taken away as garbage. So few people in the city have eaten almonds, in fact, almonds taste good!

No one dares to eat almonds in the city, but almonds in the countryside are regarded as super delicious. Most of the almond trees planted by farmers themselves are eaten at home, without the harm of agricultural residues, so they can rest assured to eat them. When the almond is ripe, it is soft and juicy, with a strong aroma and a sweet and sour taste. Almond also has a certain medicinal value, can strengthen the spleen and regulate qi, promote digestion, but also can treat cough and phlegm. Local farmers will pick immature almonds to "pickle", that is, pickled with salt, green plum, ginger, etc., sour, sweet and crisp, very delicious.

Of course, the easiest way is to pick ripe almonds and eat them, which are similar to mangoes and can be eaten after peeling. Almonds are only as big as eggs, and it's easy to eat them one after another. Readers, have you ever eaten it?
