The orange is a cross between a mandarin and a pomelo, created long ago in China. YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MANDARINS & ORANGESįrom a hybridization perspective, the mandarin is a progenitor of the orange*. Here’s the difference (Produce Pete and Wikipedia take note!). While both are from the genus Citrus, mandarins are a different species, just like broccoli and cabbage-both members of the genus Brassica-are different species. Halos, Cuties, and Sweeties are mandarins from California, different brand names for what are often clementines.

Welcome to the world of single-serving, easy to peel, sweet and juicy-and branded-citrus. Nota bene: mandarins are not oranges, but a different species. Depending on the store, you can find clementines, Cuties, Halos, Dimples, tangerines and mandarin “oranges.”
