Abstract: A hand utensil for peeling and pitting a fruit, such as a mango, has a spoon-shaped bowl through which a plurality of elongated generally parallel slots laterally extend in a lower region of the concave surface between the proximal end and the distal end of the bowl. In addition, a series of arcuate ridges project from the concave surface of the bowl, wherein each arcuate ridge has a radius of curvature extending from a center point on a longitudinal axis defined by the bowl.
