Kesar Mangoes Deserve Infatuation | Eater
"This nearby South Asian grocer becomes a seasonal must-visit when kesar mangoes arrive — they were selling cases for about $40 each, kept behind the cash register and in such limited supply that the author felt immediate FOMO and rushed to buy two cases, even carrying them home on the subway. The store’s placement of the mangoes (not on open display but tucked near checkout) and the once-a-year availability make purchases feel urgent and celebratory, turning routine grocery runs into a small ritual for sourcing prized, restaurant-quality fruit." - Jaya Saxena
