Siamese Oranges

Why is it so common to find a miniature orange growing inside of a
normal orange these days?

I don't remember this happening very often when I was younger.

I bet it has something to do with Orange Tree Seed (genetic)
manipulation, or all the pesticides they spray.

(kind of makes me not want to eat it)

Which mutant orange distributor do you purchase your fruit from ?

I'll be sure to avoid them. I haven't seen that happen with an orange/ citrus fruit and we eat a box or two a month.

That's what happens in navel oranges, but I've never seen one that big...see the link and read under Navel Oranges. Outstanding!

It should make you feel better about the pesticides...
