Mangoes for Bikes
This article provides a good example (and a tasty one at that) of the benefits of globalization. I am a personal fan of mangoes - they are my favorite fruit, and one I would often buy in China and Australia. However, I have been greatly disappointed by the mangoes in the United States - they are invariably bland, and often the stores sell them unripe. However, even when they are ripe, they are still nothing compared to the mangoes I have eaten in China - the best are the little ones that are ripe enough that you can peel them by hand......ahhhh so delicious. I can't wait to eat them when I get back to China in a week. Anyways, according to this article, the wonderful mangoes of India are on their way to the United States. In return, the Indians get Harley Davidson motorbikes. Globalization can be great.
