Hi abs, In south-west Houston,you can buy them at $5.99 per pound!!! Guess what? A box of Indian mangoes ( ten mangoes) will cost you $35.00.After a hiatus of 19 years,these ' golden fruits' are allowed by the US govt.to be imported.Ihope,nobody buys them at that exorbitant price. KJD

Hi All: Could anybody tell me what is the English name of Potol - yes, the vegetable that is abundant during the summer(?) in Assam and $9.00 a pound in the US :). Like any other vegetables, I was never crazy about it but it is okay. But the hindusthani(?) name 'parowol' for 'potol' is just driving me nuts. I would rather talk about it in English. :) Oh, please don't think this now: 'eh, aami imaan sirius kotha paati aasu - dex-bidexor baare-boronia rajnitir kotha-r logote` upor-khapor kotha, eo akou aahil eta paak-ghoror xoru kotha eta loi'. I better go home to take care of our two beautiful (I better say, handsome before they feel insulted, but they are too beautiful - you know what I mean, if you ever have had a dog at home) dogs. Have a great evening, Everyone!!
