Yes, mangoes are related to poison ivy in that they both belong to the Anacardiaceae family of plants. The skin of mangoes contains urushiol, the same compound found in poison ivy, which can cause skin irritation in some individuals. However, the fruit itself is safe to eat for most people, while poison ivy is toxic and can cause allergic reactions. Always exercise caution when handling mango skins if you have a known sensitivity to urushiol.
