Sunburst Tangerine

All tangerines are a kind of Mandarin orange. They hail originally from Asia, but have been grown in North America for over 100 years. Tangerines are seedless and very much like Clementines but easier to peel and somewhat sweeter. Zip the peel to receive a refreshing scent that will chase away the winter blues. And, of course, tangerines are high in Vitamin C to give you a boost for the cold season as well.

Bosc Pear

The elegant Bosc pear is distinguished by its dark gold skin and cinnamon russeting. These pear's ancestors hail from Belgium and so speak Walloon. To check for ripeness, first greet your pear "Diè wåde, comint vos dalez?". Then gently press the stem end, a slight yield means it's ripe. Slice or eat in the hand and bid "Arvèy."

D’Anjou Pear

Wobbly but won't fall down. These lovely green (or poire verte) D'Anjou Pears have their roots in Angers, France. You can tell when it is ready by squeezing it delicately. Pears ripen from the inside out so if it gives to your touch, it is ready.

Satsuma

One of The FruitGuys favorite fruits! This California mandarin is seedless and super easy to peel and eat. It has a "zipper" skin which can look bumpy and feel soft. However, it is normal and makes the removal of the skin a snap. Just gently push your thumb into the bottom of the fruit and "zip" the skin off. Break apart the wedges and pop in your mouth. It's a sweet treat with a less acidic bite than other citrus. Satsumas often have a soft and puffy peel when fully ripe, so don't miss out on their juicy sweetness.

Pink Lady Apple

Pink Lady apples are refined and sweet. Their skin ranges from pinky-yellow to red with a green blush. Under it all a creamy flesh, sweet and tart, with a honey taste. They all have the poise of a lady, and yes, that is a dimple underneath.

Navel Orange

An orange with an Innie. Navels are aptly named. Native to Brazil, they've been cultivated in Riverside CA since the dawn of the citrus boom in the 1870s. Easy to peel and breaks into sections superbly, this orange is practically seedless.

Granny Smith Apple

A firm and crisp green apple. When you think of the traditional tart apple, Granny Smith is it. Refreshing and a wonderful complement to cheese.

Cameo Apple

Cameo apples made their first appearance as a little stray seeding in an orchard in the upper left corner of Washington state. Cameos are tart and aromatic with stripy skin. Alfred Hitchcock was the king of cameos, popping onscreen in 39 of his 52 movies. The Cameo is sure to be the apple everyone is watching for when the fruit arrives.

Red D'Anjou Pear

These beautiful and tasty maroon D'Anjou Pears are an old European style pear. They were discovered in Oregon on a sport of the green D'Anjou variety.

Cara Cara Orange

What looks like a regular orange on the outside may be a Cara Cara once peeled. This normal-looking Californian orange has a pink flesh inside and a refreshing taste that is orange, but with something more.

Blueberries

Fats Domino found his thrill on blueberry hill, and the FruitGuys are thrilled to offer these. Blueberries are power packed with nutrients. Add some sweet notes to your yogurt or coffee-cart granola by tossing in a few of these real-deal berries.

Cavendish Banana

If you prefer you bananas with pedigree, than the Cavendish is for you. It has peerage - so you may address your banana as Duke, Marquess, Earl, Viscount - or Baron Banana. But if our banana doesn't come when you call -- then "hey you!" should work. Most bananas we include in our cases are Cavendish bananas.
