christopher, I have not heard anyone say you shouldn’t eat them…but on the other hand, do you eat them raw?! I can see them as candied orange peel or in marmalade or in baked goods, but raw?! The only thing that might concern me are insecticides…

Shoppaholique, I’m pretty sure it’s just a derivative of an orange, hybrid with something. My family members in China have been eating that fruit for a very long time and they told me it’s been around since they were kids and probably beyond.

Ivan, I’ll try to bring the fruit on the binondo walking tour to show you which one we’re talking about.

It was tangy,Mila, but I wish it was more juicy though…
It’s available at the Fort?

I was wondering though, is the mystery orange a real fruit or a genetically modified one.
