    Turns out Moroccan and South African oranges taste just like oranges so avoiding yankee oranges hasn’t been much of an issue.

        notice how the color matches the name? That cannot be a coincidence.

          Calling the fruit an orange came before calling the colour orange.

    That’s alarming.

    Canadians might have protein deficiency due to the sheer lack of bugs they are no longer digesting through their Floridian orange juice.

    So that means there should be a surplus of OJ for Americans which should drive down prices in the US… right? Right? /s
