One of These Things is Not Like the Others

My husband and I have the good fortune to live about a half hour drive from a huge (and expanding) international market. It’s fun to browse as well as bring home some interesting finds.

This hybrid of various orange varieties proved to be absolutely delicious. So I’m glad we didn’t let the appearance put us off.

Do you think the lemons feel intimidated?

Have you heard of the Weird Explorer, Jared Rydelek, who travels the world tasting unusual fruits? Did you know there are over 70,000 fruit species in the world?

  3. The Arnold Schwartznager of lemons. I did not know there were so many kinds of fruits. XO

  4. I will admit that seeing one of those, I would have passed on by. Learning from you that the bumpy one was delicious makes me re-think my automatic refusal to try.

  5. I enjoy trying different fruits but they're hard to find around here. That crinkled orange looks interesting. What did it taste like?

    1. It tasted like a super juicy orange, nice and sweet. I'm sorry you don't enjoy more variety there. :(
