Clementines

This post had me thinking because I normally clementines but do not like the canned mandarin oranges. Per wikipedia a clementine is a type of mandarin but is different from the canned one.

"The mandarin orange is a variety of the orange family. Cultivars and crosses between the original mandarin and other citrus fruits include:

Satsuma (Citrus unshiu), a seedless variety, of which there are over 200 cultivars, such as Owari and mikan; the source of most canned mandarins, and popular as a fresh fruit due to its ease of consumption
Owari, a well-known Satsuma cultivar which ripens during the late fall season
Clementine, sometimes known as a "Christmas orange", as its peak season is December; becoming the most important commercial Mandarin orange form, having displaced mikans in many markets
Tangerine sometimes known as "Dancy Mandarin"
Tangor, also called the temple orange, a cross between the Mandarin orange and the common sweet orange; its thick rind is easy to peel and its bright orange pulp is sour-sweet and full-flavored
 
always in a bowl on the counter. The only fruit I put in the fridge are strawberries, cut up melon and grapes.

I prefer the grapes room temp, but they don't seem to last that long.
