Scientists may have found a way to solve a potential impending shortage of cocoa, which could affect future chocolate production, by using mangoes in lieu of cocoa to make chocolate, according to a study published in Scientific Reports, an open-access journal from the publishers of Nature.
“Wild mango is one of the so-called Cinderella species whose real potential is unrealized,” says Sayma Akhter, the study's senior author.
