Thai people like their food underripe. They sweeten it up with some sugar. And of course they fishen it up with fish sauce. Also, let's not forget the chili.
Wow. I suspected, but did not know, that such wonderful food existed. It makes me want to run outside and check a local food cart. But sadly, I know all I would get are hot dogs and soft pretzels.
HI, i saw your blog mentioned at Eating Asia. green mangoes eaten with spicy and salty fish sauce is also common in the Philippines; we have a very pungent fish or shrimp paste that we eat our green mangoes with. Love the combination. And when I go to Bkk, i love to buy the green mangoes and dip it into the salt/sugar/chilli dips.

This is a favorite snack in Isaan.
