    A rug on the floor rather than a tablecloth methinks, cyrille. Highly likely a Gashqa'i.

    There are many delicious mango varieties in Thailand. I don't recall the variety of my favourite one.

    Them mangoes have been matured using chemicals which cause cancer.


    Calcium carbide is known to cause cancer and also causes food poisoning, gastric irritation and mouth ulcers. According to scientists, when calcium carbide comes in contact with moisture in the atmosphere, it produces acetylene gas, which like ethylene accelerates the ripening process.Jul 17, 2012
