Mango butter?

/me perks up

I love mangos! I had heard of shea butter, it is in my lip goop, Desert Essence Lip Rescue with shea butter, so I could definitely see using shea butter. Never heard of mango butter, but I can see if they have it at my local co-op. I know they have a couple grades of shea butter, and a couple grades of cocoa butter.



I have to avoid most processed foods, and rarely go out to eat. I have an anaphylactic reaction to mushrooms, and it is amazing how many foods have mushrooms in some form - I rarely do any savory food that lists 'natural flavors' without writing to the manufacturer to see if they use mushroom powder as one of their flavor additives. Cross contamination with shrooms in restaurant kitchens is also a big concern. I found out about the anaphylaxis when a place served me a salad that they picked the mushrooms out of when I was 3 years old. Only thing that saved me is an epi pen from a man at the next table. Scared the hell out of my parents. Neither of them liked shrooms so I had never been exposed to them. My mom, being a stay at home mom cooked everything from scratch. I don't go anywhere and eat without my epipen =)
