The mango is one of the most cultivated fruits in tropical areas of


the world, it is native to the South Asian areas of Eastern India,
Burma and the Andaman Islands.
Buddhist monks are believed to have introduced the mango to
Malaysia and eastern Asia around the 5th century B.C.
Legend has it that the God Buddha found tranquillity and
meditated under the cool shade of a mango tree.
The evergreen mango tree can grow as high as 35 - 40 m
(115130 ft).They are a long living tree with some specimens
having been known to still bear fruit after 300 years.

The flowers of a mango tree are small and white with five
petals, and the fruit takes between three and six months to
ripen.
Mango fruit can come in various shapes, size and colour
including yellow, orange, red and green.
Mangos contain many nutrients. The vitamin content depends
on the variety and maturity of the fruit. When a mango is
green and still growing there is a high vitamin C content, as
the fruit ripens and matures the amount of beta carotene
(vitamin A) increases.
Nearly half of the world's mangoes are produced in India, but
the country accounts for less than one percent of the
international mango trade due to the fact India consumes
most of its own production.
More fresh mangoes are eaten around the world every day
than any other fruit.
Mangoes are a very common food used in a number of
cuisines around the world especially in the tropics. The fruit
is used in all types of meals and courses such as breakfast,
lunch, dinner, dessert and used in refreshing juices
Spinach is an edible flowering plant native to central and western
Asia.Spinach is thought to have originated in ancient Persia
(modern Iran and neighboring countries). It is not known by
whom, or when, spinach was introduced to India, but the plant
was subsequently introduced to ancient China, where it was
known as "Persian vegetable".The first written evidence of
spinach in the Mediterranean was recorded in three 10th-century
works: the medical work by al-Rz (known as Rhazes in the
West) and in two agricultural treatises, one by Ibn Wah shyah and
the other by Qust us al-Rm. Spinach became a popular vegetable
in the Arab Mediterranean and arrived in Spain by the latter part of

the 12th century, where the great Arab agronomist Ibn al-Awwam
called it 'the chieftain of leafy greens'. Spinach was also the
subject of a special treatise in the 11th century by Ibn ajjj.
spinach has a high nutritional value, especially when fresh, frozen,
steamed, or quickly boiled. It is a rich source of vitamin A,
vitamin C, vitamin K, magnesium, manganese, and folate. Spinach
is a good source of the B vitamins like riboflavin and vitamin B6,
vitamin E, calcium, potassium, and dietary fiber.
