It's crazy how many types of oranges there are now. Apples too.
I don't know much about citrus, but I do know that there always were lots of types of apples and then we almost lost most of them as the big producers moved toward offering only a small number of standardized types, selected for ease of shipping, NOT taste; thus, we had the awful selection of Red (not)Delicious, Granny Smith, and one or two others. Now we are getting some of the heirloom ones back, plus new varieties. Yay!
my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf

I'm in south Texas so we're lucky and have a really good selection of apples. I LOVE pink lady and Mcintosh apples - my boys are fans of Grapples.
So I ordered from pizza hut today. That's not something I've ever done before or I'm ever doing again. I'm not a fan of that type of "pizza" but I have seen the commercial for the stuffed pretzel crust and wanted to try it. I ordered at 815 and got an email confirmation for delivery at 845. My order was delivered at 915, short one item. I called the store and I asked if I could just get a refund for the undelivered item and was told I could only get credit toward my next order, which i wasn't interested in cuz I didn't expect there to be a "next order". After 10 minutes on hold I'm told they'll send the driver back with it. Fine, whatever. At 1030 I called them back to tell them they need to just refund me cuz this is ridiculous and they don't pick up the phone. The internet tells me they close at 10. At 1045 my doorbell rings, it's the guy with my fucking soda. I just felt the need to share this ridiculous experience.
Oh, and if you're wondering, the pizza was inedible. The salted pretzel thing was a good idea, but they didn't cook it enough. It's not at all pretzel-like. The salt also was not confined to the crust so it was in puddles in the pizza.
The cookie thing was good though. I had a piece of that.

Gun to my head I prefer the ones with a little yellow in the skin. And the green ones.
