No, not related to mangos. It grows on small trees in southeast Asia and has a reddish, rather thick cardboard husk that when removed reveals a sectioned fruit about the size and shape of a tangerine. It's flavor is one of the best in the world. The only place I've seen it for sale in the US is at the big international farmer's market in Atlanta. Sometimes you can find it canned in Asian markets.
