They were once marketed as being from Tangier, a city in Morocco where a few are grown. They've more recently been called Mandarins, because they're in fact native to China.

I wonder what a tan^-1^gerine would look like.

The peel would be on the inside and the flesh outside. Much easier to eat.

Am I missing something or is this really the bare minimum of a joke? Is the only "comedy" here that tan is also in the word tangerine? You could rearrange this and have cos lettuce instead, right?
