Subject: RE: Thanks for mandarin oranges- Canada
Clementines from Morocco, like the Mandarins from Arizona, sometimes come to western Canada, but seldom. The clementines are juicy, but seeds are common. The Chinese and Japanese are almost seedless; I remember seeds were more common back in the 1950's-1960's.

I don't know when the word 'zipperskin' appeared. The trick is to remove the skin in one piece, with no punctures to the segments.
