A street vendor sells local mangos on the Xiamen 8th market, which many fear could be mixed with tainted mangoes grown on street trees A type of mango which many street vendors have claimed as authentic and local, has recently showed up in many Xiamen markets. The tiny green mangoes have attracted lots of customers, but many held back given their unknown origin. A reporter tried to find out where these mangoes came from, but was only confused by mixed and vague replies from the street vendors. Some said they are ‘home-grown’, while others said they bought them from the wholesale market. A citizen living near the Xiamen 8th market told the reporter that these so-called ‘local mangoes’ have been sold at this time of year for many years, and some of them could be mangoes grown on street trees, given their similar size and identical appearance. Although there is no clear evidence that mangoes grown on street trees have mixed with the home-grown local mangoes, experts warned that street-grown mangoes are unsafe for eating. Street-grown mangoes could contain high levels of lead, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides due to their long-term exposure to motor vehicle exhaust fumes. And excessive levels of pesticide residue is also a problem as usually more pesticide is sprayed on trees which are not grown for their fruits than those that are.
