Ever Seen One of These Before? I Hadn’t Until The Other Day – An Organic Gold Nugget Mandarin

When I was in my local organic market the other day, a handful of unconventionally-looking oranges were sitting in a back shelf.

I had never seen anything that look like these and then asked the guy working there a question.

“Do you these come like this?”

“Yes,” he said.

As it turns out, these are organic gold nugget mandarins (or tangerines).

The few key attributes of the organic gold nugget mandarin are:

– It has a rich, sweet taste.

– It is seedless.

– It is very easy to peel.

– It is bigger in size than a traditional tangerine.

Many people on the West Coast are probably very familiar with the gold nugget mandarin but this was something new to me. If you see it your local market, give it a try and let me know what you think.

Top 5 Organic Products of Fancy Food Show 2022

For the first time in three years, the Fancy Food Show returned to New York City, and as usual, it was a spectacular show.

While walking around the show on the first day, I was getting a bit concerned that I wasn’t going to find some stellar new organic products. But by the end of the show on the third day, I completely changed my mind.

Some of the new organic products that I discovered have the potential to be very large, well-known national brands, and the innovation that I saw was outstanding. Additionally, narrowing this list down to just five products was incredibly challenging. It easily could have been ten.

Here are my Top 5 Organic Products of Fancy Food Show 2022.
