Satsuma MandarinOne of The FruitGuys favorites! This Californian 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. |

Pacific Rose AppleSometimes called the New Zealand Rose Apple, it is similar to the Fuji but hails from a Gala-Splendor blend. Limited acreage makes these apples a special treat. Red and crisp, the flesh browns a little when oxidized. That's cracker, mate! |

Cara Cara OrangeWhat 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. |

Fuji AppleBred in Japan in the 1930s, the Fuji was grafted from Virginian apple royalty Rawls Jennet and Iowa’s Red Delicious. Extremely popular in Japan and the USA. About the size of a baseball (yakyuu no booru), this apple is sweet and delicious. |

Navel OrangeAn 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. |

Piñata AppleThis new apple variety is a party all on its own. Not only does it have a palatal nasal "n" in its name, it has taste. Bred from the fragrant Cox Orange Pippin, the sweet Golden Delicious, and the tart Duchess of Oldenburg - this apple is sure to be a hit. |

Moro Blood OrangeDon’t be alarmed by this fruit’s blood red interior. The taste is excellent — think orange with a tart hint of berry. Blood Oranges are native to the Mediterranean. |

Cavendish BananaIf 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. |
