Clementine Oranges > General Discussion

I went to the supermarket today and they had Clementine Oranges in stock. I bought a crate of them. They are freaking good. I always get some every winter.

Anyone else here like them?

I love the somewhat sour, piney tasting ones.

I love them. I work at a grocery store in the produce department, and eat them all the time. It's that time of year for the good ones. We also got some mandarins in also yesterday, much like Clementines, but a little sweeter.

Yup, bought some at Costco last weekend. Mighty tasty.

They are mighty tasty. My favorite of all time are the Murcotts. You can find them sometimes at the fruit stand, but they're usually labled as "honey tangerines." If you find them score a few, you'll enjoy them.

I agree but damn hard to find even in FL. Worst are Navel oranges. Best tasting citrus are generally the ugliest looking on the outside. The pretty citrus all dyed and waxed are almost always like tasteless wood pulp on the inside.

Hell yea. I eat 'em until I feel sick. They're fucking addictive. Give me an unlimited supply and I'll find out how many a person can eat before coma and death

Clementines always pop up around Xmas.

I like Minneola's. Actually a "Tangelo".
Very sweet with a strong flavor and have a loose peel.
My Korean grocery gets them from time to time.

Oh yeah, one more thing, they taste better when you put them in the fridge for a while and get them cold.

I ate like 10 of them so far.
