Never ate a mango before. I choped a few slices up and read that they contain urishiol like poison ivy which im allergic to

Crap im hope im fine and scared. After this passes i know if i can have them or no.

So juicy and delicious too... :(
 
Take off the skin and rinse it and it should be fine. The peel is the part that has the urushiol. The first time I ate one I got a couple of bumps on my lips, but I have no reaction at all with peeled mangoes.
