I tried that stuff one year. I picked up a can at a German deli. It was
not as good as the marmalade I made from fresh Seville oranges, but
wasn't bad. It sure was easier. It is probably the best bet for yo if
you missed the Seville oranges during the very short window of
availability, which is usually a week or two here.

It is definitely too late to get Seville oranges in NA now. You have to
start looking for them toward the end of January.

One year I was looking for Seville oranges. My mother told me she had
seen them in her grocery store. Not seeing any in one store, I asked a
kid who was stocking produce in the fruit and produce section. He looked
puzzled at first but then said "Oh yeah, the really tasty ones" at which
point I realized he didn't have a clue what I was talking about. Seville
oranges are not tasty. They are actually really disgusting tasting.
They are no bad that I am surprised that it ever occurred to someone to
make marmalade with them.
