Maui- Shredded Mango is a Local Snack

Shredded Mango is one of the local faves in packaged snacks, usally green mangoes are peeled, and then seasoned with a sweet and spicy concoction that only the creators know what's really in it, food coloring to make it red for sure, and it's really sweet and sticky. That's why kids in Hawaii need to see the dentist more than twice a year. Nah juss kidding. But go to any convenience store or supermarket, the odds are you'll see some locals buying shredded mangoes. Try them out it's not too expensive.

When we were kids, and we didn't have any money we'd go to the harbor and have tourist toss money into the slip, and dive for quarters to buy our snacks, or we'd beat up the clown in school that thought he was better than us, take his coin sack and run as fast as we can to buy shredded mango, and then get caught by the cops, and spend time in detention, but it was worth it.
