When was the last time you had a good orange? Go ahead, comment.
Out of my most recent bunch, one of the five were good (but not great), and that is better than usual. I have not had an excellent orange in years.
Is something happening to our orange supply? Am I choosing the wrong type of oranges (usually Naval, but not always)?
Today, someone recommended I try Blood Oranges, because “they’re the best oranges!” Coincidentally, KL encouraged me to buy a Blood Orange tree, so we could trade citrus (my research on the matter is still pending).
During the last few months I have also been disappointed in apples. On the flip side, Ecuadorian organic bananas have been incredible but difficult to time due to their short window of proper ripeness.
does anyone every comment? actually, i might comment more if I didn’t keep forgetting your blog existed.
As for oranges, go for southern european ones if you can find them. I remember how pleasantly surprised I was that most oranges I bought in gloomy bxl were good to very good.
BTW, it’s navel (as in belly buttons) not naval (as in seafaring military).

Fruit is the food of terrorists. Don’t support the terrorists. Eat meat.

I was in a chocolate store the other day and they had bacon-flavored chocolate. Now that’s a crime against humanity.
