When I was little my family would always call bell peppers mangoes , how about you?! When I moved from the Midwest to California, I was shocked when I found out what a mango really was when I began working for a local grocery chain. Boy, we were SO FAR OFF THAT IT'S STILL EMBARRASSING!🫑🥭 However, it is still common enough that the Webster dictionary's definition for mango includes a sweet pepper.   Some grocery stores will call their bell peppers “ mango peppers ” so that everybody knows exactly what type of food they are looking at.

Is it a green bell pepper or a mango? Most people know the difference. But, that might been a different story to elderly Midwestern people! My mom was a native of Central Indiana, and one thing I managed to not figure out until later on was that green bell peppers are not really mangoes. In the Midwest of the USA, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Missouri, Kentucky, and Indiana in particular...many people call green bell peppers 'mangoes' because they were raised this way.
