Default Alert: Temple oranges reclassified as...

...."royal tangerines."

I don't know if that name will be used everywhere.

Here's where I found the news (I don't THINK my supermarket has them this year, to my sorrow - and they're only available in the winter):

You have to scroll down a bit.

They are large; the skin is somewhat thin and easy to peel - and they are NOT typically shaped like minneolas. They are hybrids of oranges and tangerines.
