3. Tell me how they're different?

I'm curious! Don't know if I have ever seen them in the stores before.

4. Started seeing them in grocery stores a few years ago.

Deeper flavor, maybe because of their derivation, believed to have developed as a cross between the Washington navel and the Brazilian Bahia navel. Some say low in acid, so they taste sweeter than most other varieties.

Found them at my regular 'regional' grocery store, Giant.

12. You just reminded me,

HONEYBELLES! Dad's favorite, I used to send them to family members every January/February. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangelo

Just checked, they'll be delivered to my daughters next month! (I send them fruits every month, so grandkids get into the habit. They HAVE!)

10. Great, glad I bought a lot of them today, after looking at all the oranges

and thinking they looked/felt/smelled the best for the price, but never having heard of them
before.

11. Ditto, glad I tried them a few years ago.

I think you'll be glad you did.
