I've just noted that at this time of the year there are in the discount store Mangoes from Ecuador here in the old Anahuac. As you may think, I'm no stranger to mangoes, but realizing that there is a market so that as a country we import mangoes off-season makes me wonder about all the fruit trade worldwide. For me this is such a realization, even when fully aware of the Apple, Peach and Pear trade from the US to Mexico, while at the same time being used to see some people growing guava, apricot, pomegranate and fig trees in their yards in this city, or traversing huge avocado, pineapple, sugarcane, papaya, mango and lots other things among the almost ubiquitous corn while travelig by bus, or that we have been told that we are a major fruit exporting country and that we can grow almost anything if we plant it in the part of the country that has the ideal climate for it, be it Dates in the Mexicali Area, or Starfruit or Kiwi in Yautepec...
Or is it that i just find it weird to find certain kinds of fruits off-season?
