Tangerine, satsuma, clementine or manderin.

I bought two of these at Cudi Store in West Ealing. They were wonderful, so much better than similar ones from M&S and Tescos. So I went back to Cudi's and bought three dozen. But I don't know what they are called. Anyone tell me please?

Thanks Andy. Well observed, I'll have a shuftie the next time I go to the excellent Cudi store(opp Dean Gardens).

Re. Cudi's satsumas or clementines or . . . .Yes, they have been good. I've been enjoying them this year, too.  Regarding exactly what they are - have a look under the 'table' that displays the fruit.  Cudi sometimes keep the fruit (as delivered) in their original boxes. Check out the box labels.

Yes Christine, that's exactly how the pleasant Cudi person said..."They are small oranges but easy to skin!"Esteemed eh?  Dunno 'bout that.

Cudi is a great store, but they will probably say something like they are little orange things.Have a google for difference between satsumas, tangerines etc.  Difference is possibly something to do with seeds and if they have them or not.If you can't find a name, let's just call them Gerry's after our esteemed forum member?

Ask the shopkeeper Gerry, without a piccy it's difficult to tell.

Sorry Christine, I didn't write my question correctly - I meant to say that the fruit wasn't named or labelled, so I didn't know exactly which variety they were. But they were very tasty and juicy.

What did it say on the paper label?Sorry if that sounds rude or impolite but unless one of us was with you we are not going to know what you got are we?
