What's the point of oranges? If I need a snack then an apple seems like a little meal as it actually fills you up a bit. But an orange just seems like a drink with annoying bits that get in the way.
So to summarise for my own benefit, what to watch for is '....labelled as Nadorcott mandarins, from South Africa, from late summer'.
Anything is better than the wasteful pot luck I get at the moment.
I had given up on easy peelers. Always seemed hit and miss.Tango/Tang Gold are often disappointing. They are supposed to be the best and I read they are patented. But usually they are not as tasty or sweet as Nadorcott, from which they were developed. I've just had another two Moroccan Nadorcotts from by bag from Aldi. These are the best so far this year. I think it was last year that Morocco seemed quite a lot better than Spain, so maybe it's happening again.
do you not find most apples are tasteless ?What's the point of oranges? If I need a snack then an apple seems like a little meal as it actually fills you up a bit. But an orange just seems like a drink with annoying bits that get in the way.
Perhaps you've been on the hardcore oranges so can't taste subtle flavours any more.do you not find most apples are tasteless ?
I like my fruit.Perhaps you've been on the hardcore oranges so can't taste subtle flavours any more.
Actually some apples are really nice, occasionally with the sort of subtlety you get from a nice white wine. Most are fairly bland, but I like this - I use them as a mouth refresher after savoury food normally.
I also noticed Aldi have removed best before dates on some of their fruit and vegetables. I know some people frowned on these dates but I actually found them useful as a rough indicator of how long produce would last after you bought them, which I can't always tell from just looking and squeezing.
They usually improve through the season, but I look forward these days to the Nadorcotts or Tango, coming from Spain and Morocco, after Christmas.
