I bought some at local grocery store because I confused them with clementines and they are horrible! The skin is really hard to peel like this article said, at least every piece contains a seed, and it's so chewy you have to literally spit it out after "sucking" the little juice out! Avoid these and just stick to clementines! They should be bigger than clementines and are delicious. A small price to pay for fruit nirvana! I just bought a 40lb case! They do have quite a few seeds but I just spit them out. They are the sweetest and juiciest I have ever had. The name Murcott refers to Charles Murcott Smith who ran a nursery in Bayview, Florida and is thought to have developed the honey. The exact origin of the fruit is uncertain, but its thought to be a mix of a tangerine and a sweet orange, which is called a tangor. I only started buying them a few months ago but they are now my favorite orange or tangerine. A honey tangerine is also known as a Murcott orange and is grown only in Florida. I just cut into slices and juice them in my mouth. Honey tangerines are absolutely sublime! I don't bother peeling them. Also, I've noticed that the ones I bought lately have far fewer seeds. Really they're not that hard to peel, much easier than other oranges. I agree that anan64518 had a bad one, probably old and dried from his description. I slice them and then cut away the seeds before eating them. Honey tangerines are so sweet and juicy, way better then clementines. And would like to know will planting the seed of a "honey tangerine" produce a viable fruit given time?
