Hey, this isn't just another recipe (when you get inside, go to the kitchen and click on the cookbook), it's the recipe for the Roast Duck with Mango Salsa mentioned in that Geico "Caveman" commercial! The one where the Geico rep takes the two cavemen out to lunch to apologize for calling them stupid. One caveman doesn't have an appetite, but the other one says "I'll have the Roast Duck, with Mango Salsa.
