Whats the difference between an orange and a clementine?
A clementine is the fruit of a variety of mandarin (Citrus reticulata), named in 1902. A clementine is an oblate, medium-sized fruit. The exterior is a deep orange colour with a smooth, glossy appearance. Clementines separate easily into eight to fourteen extremely juicy segments. They are remarkably easy to peel, like a tangerine, but lack the tangerine's sourness and seeds.

Reply:A mandarin is a type of orange. They are grown throughout the world, but in the United States most of them come from California. Because they are picked late fall through winter, they are often referred to as "Christmas Oranges".
