Clementines: Nature's Tangerine-Flavored Candy
I forgot to tell everyone on Wednesday, but on Wednesday, Hungry Sam turned one. Which in blog years, means that Hungry Sam is a cranky and stressed out teenager. Or something!
To reward you all, I'm going to talk about clementine oranges. Which I LOVE.
Not true size. Or maybe, depending on the size of your computer screen. |

The second best thing about clementines is that they're wicked healthy, so I don't feel bad about about bringing six of them to work with me as snacks. Also, now my office smells GREAT.
The third best thing about clementines is that they essentially taste like candy.
The worst thing about clementines is clementine FAILS. These occur when the clementine isn't sweet enough, is too firm (and thus IMPOSSIBLE to peel in one piece), or when there are seeds. I mean, really -- I eat these little babies instead of giant citrus because they're so easy. But when each of the eight segments or whatever has like three seeds, that's the opposite of easy. It's hard.
OK, that's all I have to say about that. Go buy yourself a box of clementines -- you won't be disappointed, unless you are!
