What is an "orange"?

An orange is a round citrus fruit known for its bright orange color and juicy, flavorful flesh. It typically has a thick, textured skin that can be easily peeled to reveal segments of pulp inside. Rich in vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants, oranges are a nutritious and refreshing snack with a sweet-tart flavor and hints of citrusy acidity. They come in various varieties, including navel oranges, Valencia oranges, and blood oranges, each with its own unique taste. Oranges can be enjoyed fresh, juiced, or used in a variety of recipes, from salads and desserts to marinades and sauces, making them a versatile and popular fruit worldwide.
