Sweet and spicy combine in this tantalizing Thi style Marijuana Mango salad recipe.
Marijuana and mangoes make a good flavor match because they share a common terpene, myrcene.
Terpenes are the compounds in plants, all plants, not just marijuana plants, that give them their fragrance. Terpenes also impart important medicinal effects. In both cannabis and other foods, such as mangoes.
We can't say we've personally noticed this, but mangoes and marijuana usually do make a good culinary flavor match-up.
