Do you like and eat mandarins?

I usually eat a mandarin every day when they are in season.
This year my fruit and veg shop where I go (a 20 minute drive from home!) had mandarins virtually all year round from Egypt - they were not anywhere near as nice as ours though.

So, yes, i like mandarins and I also love oranges but find mandarins so much easier to eat while I watch TV.

I have spotted a couple of oranges on our tree. They are nearly ripe for the picking! You should come over and have some with me. :-D

I DO love Mandarins!

Our 7 & 3/4 year old granddaughter has been learning Mandarin since kinda -garden. She's now in year 3, & of cause is still learning it. I guess she also eats them, when her mother buys them at the market.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them. They are so sweet and juicy. Have them every day !!

I prefer tangelos (YUM!) or oranges but I do eat mandarins from time to time. My mother used to set tinned ones in orange jelly. *barf* I hated it.

yum!

I adore them... but the seeds annoy me.
If only we could get them without the seeds!

Have a look around or ask your greengrocer. I buy ones without seeds. I find the odd one in there, but they are generally seed-free. Yum!

Yes! Mandarins are delicious. I like them a lot!

I have always loved mandarins, and can recall having them when a very little girl. They are so fragrant as well as delicious and now I see there are varieties with far less seeds in them than they always used to have!! I only have eaten Australian mandarins.My friend here in Townsville has an amazing tree which always produces the sweetest and juiciest fruit which she has often shared with me. The real bonus to mandarins now that I am crippled up with arthritis, is that they are very easy to peel and to break apart for ease of eating!! The very reason they are popular for children too!! Ha ha ha ha!!!!

Yes I like mandarins.

I do like mandarins as long as they are sweet and without seeds in the middle.

For years and years I hated them, even the smell would make me feel sick, then I was given an organic one and it was so sweet and juicy I just loved it. Now they are a regular feature on my shopping list!

Much prefer mandarins to oranges.
Love them cold!

I haven't bought any for ages, as they always seemed to be boring, without any taste or juice!
