Hawkeye60 Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Have you ever had the perfect Clementine? As I sit here with juice running down my chin, let me relate a story. Years ago, I had a friend (since passed) who would travel from the white mountains of New Hampshire to the markets in Boston at 2:00 Am to be at the market when they opened. This way, He could get the best pick of vegetables and fruit to buy and re-sell back up north. This guy knew food. We would go to a restaurant and I would wait for him to order, then order the same! He never choose what was on the menu, instead giving the waitress specific instructions on what and how his meal should be prepared! He never let me down! So one morning he stops at my shop and bring in a couple of cases of Clementines. He tears one apart with his hands, gives me half, and proceeds to tell me about Clementines. This was the most unbelievable taste I had experienced in forever! They were better than candy. Like crack! We ate 3/4 of a box sitting there!:D He told me that the perfect Clementine ONLY came from Spain. The ones grown in the USA or anywhere else did not compare. Even the ones from Spain are hit or miss he said. The climate and growing conditions must be perfect to produce the "better than candy" Flavor. It only happens rarely! THIS year we have consumed 2 1/2 boxes and have two more waiting. You can not eat just one! I dare you! If you can get your hands on them, DO SO! The brand I found is called Bagu. Now if you would excuse me, I need to go grab a few more. The first one disappeared!:megalol: "Yeah, and though I work in the valley of Death, I will fear no Evil. For where there is one, there is always three. I preparest my aircraft to receive the Iron that will be delivered in the presence of my enemies. Thy ALCM and JDAM they comfort me. Power was given unto the aircrew to make peace upon the world by way of the sword. And when the call went out, Behold the "Sword of Stealth". And his name was Death. And Hell followed him. For the day of wrath has come and no mercy shall be given."
