How many clementines in a portion?

I've just eaten 5 clementines. DH says 2 is a portion.

What say you, MN?

I would say one, BUT if I fancied eating five at once then I would with no bother! Enjoy your clementines!

dementedpixie · 01/12/2020 19:54

Yes I think it is 2 for a portion

I don't know but aren't clementines DELICIOUS at the moment!? I never have less than 2 at a time anyway.

Interested in this thread?

If you're counting for your 5 a day then 2 is counted as a portion. If you want to eat 5 then do so although it might give you a dodgy tummy

A couple. I think the rough rule is that one portion of fruit or vegetables is enough to cover the palm of your hand.

I'd say 2 was a portion, as they are only small.

BUT

I'd happily eat a whole bag in one sitting, I just love them!

bellagogosdead · 01/12/2020 20:19

2, but what you want are satsumas, far superior.Grin

Rockbird · 01/12/2020 20:25

If they're nice ones then about 7 Xmas Grin

They are justright at this time of year, you can never eat just one! I caneasily eat five in one go..

TheChosenTwo · 01/12/2020 21:43

Definitely 2 for me but I have been known to eat more (well, satsumas) because they’re so damn sweet and delicious.
I wouldn’t rule out 5 Grin

  1. But eat as many as u want.. Its not like you're eating a chocolate orange 😉 x 5

My 2 yr old will eat 4 or 5 a day!

DrFoxtrot · 01/12/2020 22:07

One for me - any more in one sitting and I'll be on the toilet all evening.

CherryPavlova · 01/12/2020 22:10

I don’t know about clementines but for satsumas, I believe it’s a box.

irregularegular · 01/12/2020 22:11

I normally only eat one at a time. Maybe two if they need using up!

grassisjeweled · 01/12/2020 22:57

They are SO good! I had another 2 just now, so 7 altogether today!
