  • The world's most expensive/best paid?

    US$200 paid for each live fish weighing 0.3 kg!

    Google this:(fvn.no > Ny oppdrettsfisk er gull verdt) This money will be paid in Norway for delivery of wrasse-fishes to the salmon farming of fish! These fishes eliminates the need for chemicals and antibiotics in salmon farming, because they eat lice (Gyrodactilus salaris) directly from the skin of salmon.

    See 2 friends diving among this kind of fish at the Norwegian coast:

  • Stupidity, oh my, you waste ton of money on flying in mango's, did it never occur to you to use that money to fly in mature mango tree's instead ?

    Why do you not just import some mature mango tree's then ?

    Bloody hell, don't over complicate it.

  • Comment removed

  • I love this YT page!

  • This guy's CV must be interesting. "Since 2006 - working on mangoes."

  • The world's most expensive mangos?

    In Australia the first tray of mangoes of the season is traditionally sold at an auction for charity. IIRC the last one went for $50,000 AUD

  • Trouble is they're going to breed it for handling, and breed out all the flavor. :/

  • Nottingham? how about a shoutout to the New Spitafields Market in East London, because they're the biggest exotic fruit supplier in EUROPE!!

  • im working on my birds mangos right now, they are big a hard!(:))

  • African mangoes look way sexier than these types of mangoes...plus they taste nicer XD

  • Nottingham born, Nottingham bred, Strong in the arm, Mad in the head, Nottingham born, Nottingham bred, Mad as fuck, Mint in bed !

  • Nottingham, yeaaaaaaaah boooooyyyyyy, blap blap ;)

  • eat local ?!

  • I've had 2 bunches of bananas in the fridge for a week and they've been fine :o

  • Nice mango, but will it blend?

  • so thats why university fee's have gone up...to pay for mangos to fly around the world, meanwhile in africa...

  • his voice is very calming :P

  • Very good video got a mango from tescos and it was rotten in 24hrs. Not even cut it up for a salad.

    

  • @Lanky20 I've had so many rotten magoes recently that I have stopped buying them

  • Why does the interviewer sounding like an arsy twonk?

  • Shouldn't scientists be curing diseases not making mangoes cheaper?

  • heaps of mangos here (brisbane),got a mango tree in the backyard =D

  • :\  I subscribed solely for seeing a strawberry blasted with a blue plasma light sabre thingy. Do NOT disappoint me foodskeyyyyyy!

  • @10mintwo it's coming and is cool!

  • i used to grow mangos, we would pick them just before ripe, wrap them in newspaper and put them in a dark cupboard. they would ripen slowly and when ripe were ripe evenly and much more tasty then normal. on a tree many ripen to fast, or go overly soft on the side facing the sun. not to mention the bats eating them!!

  • 1) Grow a lot of mangoes wherever they are native

    2) harvest and re-plant the fruit from the trees that are smaller and grow faster

    3) using a grow house locally, replicate the native environment

    4) each generation, change the environment in the grow house to a little more like the natural environment locally, harvesting and planting the mangoes that grow the best

    Result: mango trees everywhere!

  • Why does he speak in a so low volume? i could barelly undesrtand what he was saying....

  • uhhhh... what research do they do with the mango?

  • i have 2 mango trees here in florida, US =]

  • I'd love to see a video about how fruits are artificially ripened by ethylene treatment.

  • @LechuCzechu Same here.

  • @LechuCzechu we'll be doing that!

  • @LechuCzechu i bet that looks so exciting seeing someone spray ethene onto mangoes

  • Bananas turn dark in the fridge only because they get dehydrated, not because they rot. They are perfectly good to eat.

  • Could you select a prettier moment from the video for the picture that comes with its title on youtube?

  • So let's genetically modify it so that it never ripens, just as they have done to tomatoes. That way the super markets can buy them in bulk and store them on their shelves for months. Of course they will taste like unripe fruit, which is to say not very nice, but then people in the UK don't really know what a ripe mango tastes like anyway. Is it any wonder that people don't want to be forced to eat this crap?

  • mangos arnt expensive... you can get them for like 69p in some places

  • trouble is though this ends up with foods being sprayed with wax/chem mixtures to 'preserve freshness'.

    gotta be another way,

    * hopes your channel can show us some.

  • @VonLeachim There's always genetically modified crops.

  • Like your channels! Looking forward to more videos.

  • not to be picky, but the sound is a tad quiet... :)

  • @fathead431 audio level sufficient here : ... volume button :)

  • I like mango's

  • go taiwan, best mangoes around

  • At first I read ".. most explosive mango".. :-O Imagine my dissapointment! :D

  • Well ok, not saying that I didn't liked it, actually I find this channel very interesting as to see that my country exports a lot of commodities but the real research is only made at the countries wich import them(yes that's why I hate my country) and can't grow any of them.

    But didn't quite saw any science related to the foods yet, I hope those are introduction videos.

  • @Draxis32 hi, I think you'll find plenty of science in upcoming videos... never like to cram too much into any one video, and I think the thrust of this one was "an interesting perspective on how a scientist gets his hands on the fruit"

    stay tuned though. :)

  • @foodskey Maybe having "Extended footage" for these with more science stuff for those who want to know more?

  • @foodskey Sure will, thanks for the info!

  • @foodskey i have been watching your videos for so long that i read all your comments in your accent within my head......

  • The Malaysia Campus! Finally making an appearance (sort of)!

  • Why didn't you try the Caribbean for mangoes?

    We have a tonne of them, and a university you could work with. 

  • @wyvernlord23 Mango is also grown in Israel, much closer to the EU that the far east. Their very succulent :-D

  • @trespire D:

  • interestingly enough:

    Banana skin will turn black in the fridge, but the inside still stays fresh and edible for a lot longer.

  • I love mangos, but cutting around their huge pits and cutting off the skin is a big pain. I just buy them pre-sliced.

  • @culwin

    It's actually really easy if you know how. People have even posted videos up here showing you the proper methods. Try it.

  • @culwin Best way to eat a mango is first to stick it in the fridge for a day to cool it down. Take it out on a hot day, wash it, then slice two big chunks of both the big flat sides, skin & flesh together, right up as close as you can to the stone. Now dice just the flesh into cubes without cutting through the skin.

    Bite off the diced flesh with the juice just like an orange. Cut the remaining flesh & skin from around the stone, dice the flesh & enjoy. Juice & fibers on the stone r also good :-)

  • @trespire Well that does sound easier than just buying it pre-cut. :/

  • well the one hes holding doesnt look ripe lol

  • 3:17 Mangoes? aaah....Mangoes! :) (wink wink nudge nudge)

  • Please work out how to grow 'exotic' fruit like melons over here so we don't have to pay £2 each for them.

    Same for red and green peppers which seem to cost 70p each, whereas other countries buy them by the kilo.

  • @pikuorguk green house, heated .

  • @treemarble I managed hundreds of chilli peppers this year, but only one of my normal peppers grew and never went past the 'Tesco Value' stage of green and bitter tasting.

  • @pikuorguk perhaps too cold - soil/ambient also ...enough light ? / similar species on same space -spent soil ?

  • Can they be flash frozen?

  • I've never eaten a mango. What do they taste like? I think there might be mango trees here in Florida, US. Yes, there are and they are available from June 8 to August 14. They were introduced in Florida in 1833 from India. I think there is even a mango tree outside of my condominium. What does a mango tree look like? How would I go about planting one from a seed? Do normal "ready to eat" Mangos have plantable seeds in them. When is a mango "ready to eat" and at its optimal level?

  • @kkonstantinosss2 They are very nice, havent tried one is ages, but it is like smooth orange mixed with peach and watermelon.. probably completelly different its hard to explain, you have to try it yourself xD

  • Greg Tucker: Lowering the price of mangos, by producing the most expensive mangos in the world.

  • Brady, as a confirmed food addict, I am EXTREMELY happy with the new channel. Keep innovating !!!

  • I'm really lucky to live in Brazil where I can get as many mangos as I want!

  • Oh wow, I get so excited whenever I see a video on this channel. Great video!

  • That is by Far my favorite fruit! MANGOS FTW!

  • green mangoes arent for eating??

  • @nmuller789

    The color of a mango does not necessarily correspond to its ripeness. The key variable is the softness of the outermost flesh and the smell. A mango that has a soft skin and smells like a mango is ripe. You can eat them before that though, nothing bad happens, maybe except disappointment in taste.

  • @Raudorn

    I actually prefer them a little under-ripe. The flesh is a little more firm and the taste a little less sweet and more tangy.

    I prefer Cavendish Bananas the same way for the same reasons.

    Apple Bananas like we have here in Hawaii however, are much better fully ripe.

  • it's funny how I can see a mango tree in front of me right now, while watching this video...

    

  • Bleargh, I don't like mangos =(

  • First Comment! second watch :D
