How is the inner slices of an orange is called?

When you peel off an orange you have to take the pieces one by one. Some of the clues which I received (though incorrect/doesnot satisfy me)are: pod,segments, flakes or simply slices.

Reply:If you buy them in a can already cut up, they are called Mandarin Orange Slices, but I have always called them "sections" because to me, a slice would be something you had actually cut, and these look like they have been peeled out of the orange. Perhaps wedges would be a good word to describe them. I have heard lemon pieces being called wedges.
