 I can’t remember the name of this one so
I’m calling it “green orange” 

- a citrus fruit 
- less juicy than an orange but sweeter than a lime. 
- really yummy
- it’s very hearty. https://image.nostr.build/8f050717dbda0312e8a84f16c84d2517404e5068fcf0c45ff22445fac5e9422f.jpg https://image.nostr.build/6936eca4c4392bfc58eb017e7f52935386f19380b20600c2c8e0a5c2fc66c261.jpg  
 Tangerine, mandarin or bergamot 
 Mandarin or clementine 
 I was thinking that but the inner flesh looks and feels completely different and it’s not as aromatic. Maybe they’re on the same clade 
 I also believe they are mandarines, or of the same family. The difference in look and taste is due to the environment where they grow, I think...  
 Possibly. Mandarins aren’t very juicy but I don’t think the color changes which is I why I’m nervous to call it an orange. It’s also a little tart and the kernels are spherical not oblong. 
 That made me curious, so I asked chatgpt and here is what came out: 🙂

> Based on the description and images, the fruit you're referring to is likely a sweet lime or sweet lemon, also known as mosambi in India. This citrus fruit is green or yellowish-green on the outside and is less juicy than an orange, with a taste that’s milder and sweeter than a lime. It's popular in tropical regions and is known for being refreshing and nutritious.

 
 Yuzu? 
 I don’t think so. They peel more like an orange than a lemon or lime.
