The Citrus Thread!

[Evo]

After a vicious attack on the humble Clementine by Core and as i work on the Fresh Produce Department at a local Superstore (Sainbury's) i thought a discussion on Citrus was in order!

What kinda Citru-sian are ya?
Orange
Mandarin
Clementine
Satsuma
Tangerine
Lemons Unwaxed
Lemons Waxed
Pink Grapefruit
Red Grapefruit
White Grapefruit

Tell me all!

Personally i love the Clementine (Clemenule variety) as being the juciest most flavoursome of all!

Note: I work in this store :O

 

[Remus]

I like oranges, and what the **** are Clementines and Satsumas ?

 

[Evo]

[Core407]

The people have spoken and citrus is out! Long live our pomegranate overlords.

Tangerine

[Geogaddi]

I know oranges, then there are the smaller ones that tastes basically like oranges, and the smaller ones that are sweeter than oranges.

 

[Remus]

Well according to that article mandarins, clementines and satsumas are almost the same thing:rolling:

I don't sell anything called a Tangerine though, i tell customers to f*ck off with their Tangerine crap and buy Clementines!

 

[Geogaddi]

Well I like satsumas, which is what they're called here.

****ing grapefruit easily.

They act as a chelating agent for minerals.

So having a glass of grapefruit juice with your supplements is a good idea!
