so i have a whole bunch of mandarins given to me by various people and i kept them out.
i have no idea why i didn't refrigerate them, but i tried eating two today and both tasted bad despite smelling okay and looking perfect.
i think i'd have to throw all of them out.
yes, i always refrigerate my regular oranges...
you've been warned.

If those oranges you mentioned came from those traditional "Chinese New Year" trees sold in large potted containers, they probably would have tasted horrid no matter what. I tried one after picking one last month. It was ripe, looked good, smelled good but tasted awful. I read that these "trees" are planted with high amounts of something in the fertilizer to make them grow fast, but the stuff in the fertilizer makes them taste awful.
