Thanks to LB , else I might thought those are EXPENSIVE ROTTEN ORANGES (RM 1.99 per orange). LOL. After eating and taking few snapshots of the Blood Oranges I bought, it's time to sms and inform LB, my discovery. :P
The sampat LB took a snapshot of our sms-es and posted it to me :D
I choose two slightly "more normal looking" Blood Oranges, instead of those dark purplish oranges, and not those normal looking orange-coloured oranges (as you can see from the first photo). Kiasu and Kiasi spirit mah. LB's Blood Oranges are TAROCCO and mine's are MORO.
The seedless Blood Oranges with crimson, blood-coloured flesh and sap. Nope, I'm not sucking nor eating blood. I'm not dracula nor vampire either. I'm just me, and I am who I am. :Pp/s: Blood Oranges are rich in Vitamin C and the red pigment (anthocyanin) is an antioxidant
Hahaha, truly sampat! Sampat to the factor of n! Finally, proof that I wasn't making it all up, eh? Phew!! LOL, now, all you Penangites make a beeline to Giants for the fresh BO!!!
ReplyDeleteLB,
ReplyDeleteHahahaha..
U have poisoned us all with your BO, not Body Odour but Bloody Oranges. LOL
Giants' employee might wonder how come so many people buying those awful looking "rotten" oranges.
LOL
I am going to get another bag of BO afterwards! It's good for long life liao!!

Else no one or not many people will bother to take a look at those awful looking "rotten" oranges. Kakkakaa
Good leh the BO in your places was sold at the same price as in Italy (LB told me the BO there was sold at RM 1 per oranges too after conversion). Might be cos nobody buy those oranges earlier on, hence the discount? Kekekke
My Goodness... U mean there is fresh figs in Malaysia too??? I have only tried the dry figs and preserved figs. I wanna try those fresh ones !!!!!!!!!!!
What a name. Buah Tin. I couldn't believe that :P

It is sweeter than the normal oranges, and seedless.
Rich in Vitamin C and the red coloured pigment (anthocyanin) is an antioxidant :)
U can try your luck in Giant Supermarket.

Hehehe.. Might be the Blood Orange is Grape Fruit mia relative kua? :P
Babe KL,
ReplyDeleteYeah loh, earlier on I thought it's only available oversea. Mana tau sini pun boleh dapat :)
The Blood Orange is sweet, and it's also seedless :)
Chen,

Why suddenly Apple iPhone?
Any hidden meaning ah? :D
Giddy tigress,
Wah.. u actually noticed them before this :D
The Giant Staff labelled the Blood Oranges as US Moro Oranges. Moro is one of the subtype of Blood Oranges. The blood oranges are sold at cheaper price (RM 0.99 per orange) at Giant in Prangin Mall compared to Giant in Penang Plaza (RM 1.99 per orange).
I just bought another 5 oranges today, since I'm on leave. :)

ReplyDeletemich,
ReplyDeleteyeah, it's much sweeter than the "normal" oranges :)
Hehhehe, can't blame your mum lah..
If I were her (before I know the existence of blood orange), I will have the same thinking too. Cos it indeed resembles rotten oranges :D
LB,

since it's only RM 0.99 per oranges, so I buy another 5 loh.. Won't get to eat bloody oranges frequently mah :P
Ah Boy merajuk cos I didn't feed him any bloody oranges :D
I havent try this blood orange before.. yeah I get to know that from LB post too..
ReplyDeletei went looking for rotten fruits and veges in NTUC just now. dont haveeeee. *pout*
ReplyDeleteactually quite funny. i picked some up which vaguely looked like the BO but also dark purplish red, and then see at different angle. found many strange fruits at the supermart just now. but no BO. :/
keeyit,
ReplyDeleteu should try it since the blood orange is now available in the market. I bought it from Giant Supermarket :)
misti,
Hahaha, so there are strange and extra ordinary fruits in Singapore too. Just that u need to look out and search for it, right? ;)
Might be other supermarket will have the bloody orange kua? :P
Erkkk... dari luar nampak macam rosak... dari dalam nampak macam sedap... apa rasa dia tu?? macam best jer...
ReplyDeleteberuang madu,
ReplyDeletememang betul.
Dari luar nampak macam oren rosak, cuma tak ada rasa busuk.
Rasanya sama macam oren, tapi tak masam, sebaliknya rasa manis. Dan oren ini tiada biji. Senang nak makan :)

ReplyDeletetaste like blood?
