How to cut a Mango like an expert:

Peel with a fucking potato-peeler, then cut along the seed with a fucking normal knife.



* Do not buy a $15 Mango-splitter.
* Do not use that one famous trick that looks cool but is totally unpractical.
* By God's ovaries: Please do not peel the Mango by mashing it against the rim of a drinking-glass. If you have a fucking knife to cut the Mango open in the first place, use that same fucking knife to peel it. Like a sane person.

But, yeah, use a fucking knife. That's what they were invented for.

And then do this (I LOVE Louie C. K.)
