Sumo Citrus oranges

[stalehotdog]

The weird appendage while off putting visually, actually makes it easier to peel by hand. Also, I first tried sumo oranges about 7 years ago and I remembered them being even better. The ones they sell at costco are quite a bit smaller than the ones I had before. Even though they’re not as god as I remembered they are still the perfect mix of sweet and tart and really an amazing treat.

I've had them but never heard them called that, dekopon is what I know them as.
They're pretty good

Just like @Slobodan right?
Feel free to let me know if I'm infringing on your inside joke.

Sad that you think their love is a joke. It's very serious, beautiful, and disturbing.

I purchased three the other day after reading this thread.

They were $3 each.
Yes they were really good, and easy to peel, but for the price I just can't justify
regular purchases.

Nah. I saw them and the extra wart like bump gave me the ick. It's probably good though.

Ban for saying "the ick"

I've read they have bred them to rarely produce seeds, so people can't grow them themselves. I read a post about a guy who bought several cases, and ended up with only 2 seeds, and only 1 germinated.

They're amazing oranges, definitely worth the hype.

I've been wanting to try but can't justify the price so I opt for the cuties instead

The deal at Costco was way cheaper.
I don't see them there anymore and I probably won't be buying many $3 oranges at safeway.
