You can't eat an ORIGIN and you can't pinpoint the origin of ORANGES. Or can you? When was the first orange born? What was its origin?

    That sounds like you're asking ... which came first, the orange or the tree?

    LOL

    Anyway ... sweet oranges originated in China.

    Really? There is an answer to that question? Whoa! Well you are aware that Dondon used the word ORANGES twice when he meant to say ORIGINS. I asked about that already. Thank you for your reply Walt and the link! Appreciate both. Now you say "sweet" oranges. What other kind are there?

    Generally speaking, there are "sweet", "common", "blood", and "bitter" (or "sour") oranges.
