Her mango pit? 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Yup! Both my kids love them. Slice both sides off the mango, slice the peel off the pit and hand it off. Chilled it makes a great teether. She got off a surprising amount of fruit with just two lower teeth and it kept her busy all dinner.

So..you gave her a peeled mango, not a mango pit.

No, that’s not what PP said. Are you familiar with mangoes?

She said her mango pit - it sounds like she just gave her kid the pit from the middle of the mango to chew on, which...why?

It’s not a pit like in a peach— it’s basically a large rectangular slice in the center of the fruit. It’s big enough to hold and I can see how it makes a great teether.

If you Google mango pit baby teething you’ll find all the answers to your questions and pictures of what we mean.

It’s good for teething, which I guess you didn’t read in the original post. It’s also good for good oral motor development and learning to hold slippery foods. It also tastes good. And since it’s huge and there’s not a ton of fruit on it, it’s a lot choking hazard.

Greens cut very finely or thrown in a processor and then mixed with avocado or guacamole essentially.

Toddler loves eating guacamole mixed with greens and chips to dip

You know your kid but it is a choking hazard.

Yes to mango pits.
