When I was watching the travel channel, I came upon this travel guide who is in the island of Guimaras, Philippines. Since I am very much interested in the Philippines, I watched the interesting
television show. It was all about the local products of Guimaras. I must say, they have a lot to show from their native island.
I was amazed when they featured the mango sauce. They actually used mango for ketchup and everything else. Boy, did that sound weird. I love banana ketchup and tomato ketchup. I even dig the green ketchup from Heinz. But, a mango ketchup? The tour guide tasted the ketchup and she seemed genuinely pleased with the taste. Suddenly, I wanted to taste it for myself. The tour guide said that it taste just like ketchup, but, it has a milder and sweeter taste to it. Also, the mango sauce is a very
healthy food ingredient.
The local people of Guimaras use the mango sauce for ketchup, for pasta sauce, for pastry sauce, for their local food delicacies, and for everything else that has sauce! In fact, they use the
mango sauce for every single food that they can add it into. I think that it's an interesting concept and an interesting innovation. So, if you are about to travel to the Philippines, make sure that you taste this delectable mango specialty.
