Bob brought home a bag from Costco and I've tried my very first one.
I would have preferred a thinner rind, but the fruit inside was pleasing. Not overly grapefruitish and very juicy. There was a hint of something floral that I can't quite describe. My first try is good, but I still think I prefer a Satsuma or Clemintine mandarins. The blood oranges we got last week are tasty as well, albeit quite messy with all that red, pulpy goodness. The bag does show they are a product of the USA, distributed by Trinity Fruit Sales out of Fresno. Just wanted to let those know who were looking for Cara Caras is that they are out there now. --Lin |

I need to find out for myself what the hype was all about. I'm going to lower my expectations now because I was not impressed by blood oranges when I tried them. Yep, I didn't go back for more. -- I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number of carats in a diamond. Mae West |

I bought a dozen Bloods but skipped the Cara Cara. The skin looked too thick and besides I still have about 6 Temple oranges I need to finish. -- Susan N.

It did not require any processing (boiling water bath?) and said it would be good for a year. Here's the link to the recipe: http://tinyurl.com/dlbxnw Notice that someone already posted a comment regarding the lack of processing....I am not a canner - so this appealed to me but if I have to go through boiling water bath process, I may decide to skip it. Unless, it's good for a month refrigerated...then maybe I can give some away if I decide to try the recipe out. -Tracy |

That looks go and so, so easy. I'm sure Barb will weigh in on the boiling water bath process. Thanks for the link -- I'll be keeping it! --Lin |
