Banana mango: Mango is the king of fruits but it will not be a big deal if India is called the country of mangoes. There is a kind of addiction towards mangoes here. If you don’t eat mango in summer, you have eaten nothing. However, there are two types of mango lovers in India, one is those who are determined to have only Dussehri, Alphonso, Safeda or Langda mango in their house, even if 100 types of mangoes are available in the market.
