I’m tellin’ you straight, you’re so ugly…
I’m not normally a fan of oranges.
They are pulpy, chewy, gross and have the same texture as vomit (read The Lies of Locke Lamora for some interesting uses of chewed up oranges). Plus, the smell of oranges give me the nastiest headaches.
Joe, in his quest to ensure I don’t get scurvy, found these really tiny oranges that seem to be nothing but orange juice wrapped up in a peel. I think they are some type of clementine.
They were delicious, not at all pulpy, nice smelling and I ate several with great joy.
Sorry, Sunkist oranges – but you lose.

I swear that is the first time in as far back as my memory goes that I can ever recall anyone saying so admantly that they dislike oranges! I’m stunned.
I hope you know that this will go down on your permanent record.
@Bret – You have to admit I’ve got a point though – pulpy oranges are nasty.
@CWG – Violent Femmes rule. I once skipped off school to go see them in concert. Totally worth the week’s detention I got.
I like to wrap the small oranges (clemintines) with the shells of oranges.
