Years ago in Panama I stood downwind from cashews being roasted, and in a day every part of my body that was not covered by clothes (and remember Panama is a tropical place) was covered with a hideous rash. I ended up in the emergency room. Earlier I had learned that mango juice would cause a poison-ivy-like rash on my skin when I cut up mangoes. Only after the cashew episode did I learn they were all in the same family. Eating mangoes did not cause any problem.
Thanks for stopping by. It is very interesting; I wonder why eating mangoes does not seem to cause problems. I'm thinking that once it was a mango that would not come off the pit. (The pit was large and light brown, almost like strips of wood) I started to chew the fruit off the pit but it seemed itchy. I wonder if there is somthing in the pit as well.
