Clementines Are the Perfect Snack
January 28th, 2010 | Categories: Food | 11 Comments
My roommate and I went grocery shopping to stock up on food and drinks and among our purchases was this box of clementines. They were on sale and as my roommate and I both like them, we decided to buy the box of them as it is always good to have fruit on hand. She and I have been eating mainly junk food ever since the semester started and neither of us are comfortable with the idea of us maintaining a junk food diet. So, these clementines are our first venture into trying to become healthier.
I haven’t had clementines since like, the third grade, so I was very excited to try them again as I remember them being delicious. And delicious they are! Clementines really are the perfect snack. They’re tasty, healthy, easy to eat, and convenient to carry around if one needs a portable bite to eat. I strongly suspect my roommate and I will have devoured this entire box of clementines in about a week… they’re simply too yummy to resist!

Hi, I'm Manda. I'm a college student studying communications and languages. I like to read, shop, bake, and travel. I have a tendency to listen to my favorite songs on repeat for hours on end. Sometimes I catch myself thinking in a language other than English. 
I don’t like Clementines. :( Everyone finds this hard to believe, but I’m just not a fan of oranges in general. :P
I think they’re in season right now though… people have been buying a lot of them recently!
I find it very ironic you don’t like clementines :P
In Australia, we just call them under a blanket name, mandarins. But they’re so much more convenient to eat than oranges!
Love those! I usually buy them around Christmas though, but I can tear through an entire box all by myself. :p And you’re right! They are a very easy way to help yourself eat better. :)
Regrettably I am not allowed to eat anything with citric acid because of my gastric acid.
I love clementines! I could eat them all day, every day, but then I’d get a serious stomach ache. :D
Well this is a little scary, I’ve done the same thing this week. They have been my work snack so I’m not sitting there stuffing crisps in my mouth all day. Shared brain!
*high five for shared brain* :D
I like clementines, they’re like a watery version of satsumas which can sometimes be too acidic.
Clementines really ARE the perfect snack, aren’t they? And so easy to peel, too.
I loveee clementines. They are the perfect snack! When my family buys them, I take two with me to school every day. :D
