Tangerine oranges are in stores for the Xmas season. I usually don’t pay too much attention to them but after my first tangerine that kind of tasted different, I got the bag and read the label that stated that the oranges had been treated with the following chemicals..
and/or
and/or
The oranges were also coated in food grade shellac or resin to maintain freshness.
I checked the internet and was shocked to find that all three chemicals were extremely toxic.. I mean EXTREMELY…
After reading the toxic side effects I threw the bag in the garbage…
Be aware of what you buy…. other growers could also be using these chemicals.
These oranges I bought came from a huge grower in Flordia…
