Never had these until I moved to Italy. They are grown mostly in Southern Italy, Morocco and South America. They are delicious. At the market I go to, (Trionfale) you can buy a kilo for 1 euro. This morning I noticed they were over 3 euros per kilo at the Campo dei Fiori market. This is why I walk all the way to Trionfale...over triple the price? Uhm no.

I love these. So full of flavor.
We have them, but they are kind of expensive. 1 euro/kilo isn't a bad price, even with the exchange rate. 3/kilo is highway robbery.
Campo market is ludicrous. And not that good, IMO.
Everything OK in your neck of the (riotous) woods?
The ones my wife just bought are delicious!
Clementini = Christmas!!
My son is a January baby and I ate these by the case in my last month of pregnancy. Might be why he loves them so much. I can't live without them at this time of year.
Ciao tutti...I plan to enjoy them all season.
I agree 3/kilo is ridiculous. Eleonora, I stayed in after running an errand earlier that day. Which was a good thing as there were problems by Largo Argentina.
We're seriously into the clemintini, too. Here they're 1.30 a kilo, so not too shabby for a small village shop.
valerie - that isn't bad at all.
i love those too! so easy to peel, that's what makes them extra-fab.
tracie - I agree. very easy!
