- TheSpiceIsLife 8y agoWhole oranges? Orange peel / rind probably accounts for a significant portion of the weight of fresh oranges.
- semi-extrinsic 8y agoWhole oranges, for sure. I can't see how you'd lose 50% mass if you've already discarded the peel/rind. FWIW, citrus peel is a fairly valuable commodity since it's the raw material for production of limonene, which is a really good and biodegradable degreaser. IIRC it was discovered by NASA searching for a solvent for cleaning the space shuttle.
