Beautiful Clementines [General]
2011 Dec 6
I guess that is just a holiday thing?
I never see fruits in baskets there.
Where are they from?
I saw something online like that though when I was buying a gift for my parents in Florida- some place that grows oranges and other citrus fruits and a lot had the leaves too. I did not try them, but they look good!
Was there a big price dif w the basket and packaging?
maybe I can get these downtown somewhere, merivale is a hour and a half away for me.

Prettytastyreviews I believe Loblaws on Rideau Street had them last year around this time. (The Loblaws on Isabella is small so finding those clementines there may be hit or miss.) Or perhaps the Byward Fruit Market - that looks like something they would carry. I can't recall how the cost compared with the cases of clementines. (I only buy them once a year and my memory isn't what it used to be-;)

I can't remember the price, but I don't think it was insane. And If you can get them at Loblaws, they'll be way less than Byward Fruit I'm guessing. Last summer Kumato tomatoes in the same packages were three times the price at Byward. I know they probably pay high rent, so perhaps that justifies the differential cost.
