Author Topic: Fruit: Tangerine / Maderine are they the same fruit? Bill Langfield Master Film Handler Posts: 280 From: Prospect, NSW, Australia Registered: Apr 2001 posted 10-20-2003 02:34 PM                        Excuse my spelling of the fruit and the fact that this very likely not the right place to ask the question. However, we have for about the last year been getting this TV show on Fox and Chaanel 10 called Olivers Twist. This is a cooking show where Jamie Oliver (Fromm BBC tv or something), erm, well cooks stuff. A few times, when he is making Deserts, he adds Tangerines, which to me look like Manarines. (Kind of an easy to peel sweet orange) Are they the same friut?? (please dont flame me for stuff I say on film-tech - Im waiting for Hoyts to that. OH hang on, no Im not. THEY fired all the GOOD people they had over the last few months) Bill.  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 10-20-2003 02:48 PM                        I think they are the same fruit: http://www.labo-hevea.com/fiche/indexmedi.asp?FAmille=6&FTech=64&Chgt=1 http://www.tropicalfruit.com/tfc/product.asp?ID=186  |  IP: Logged Stephen Furley Film God Posts: 3059 From: Coulsdon, Croydon, England Registered: May 2002 posted 10-20-2003 02:49 PM                     There are several smaller 'orange like' fruit, tangerine, mandarin, clemantine etc. and they are all different, and can be found together in shops. They are similar, but there are differences in colour and flavour.  |  IP: Logged David Favel Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 764 From: Ashburton, New Zealand Registered: Feb 2002 posted 10-20-2003 05:09 PM                     Tangerines are larger & more "tart" Mandarins are sweet & easy to peel  |  IP: Logged
