A friend gave this to me and I looked at her like she had lost her marbles, thinking to myself the whole time, "this has to be disgusting". Well, you know me....if I don't believe in something I usually have to try it to prove myself right. Boy, was I wrong on this one. The lime doesn't overpower, but blends really well with the mango and the bread. Also, it is not fried, but baked in the oven so it is better for you.
