He's sat deep in thought

I've asked him what's up

"You know those tinned mandarins? Do people peel them or a machine? What sort of machine?"

He's a deep thinker.... 🤣

I love this😂And now I also wonder

He's not thought about the 21st Century, though. Google, in particular;

'Segments are peeled using a chemical process. First, the segments are scalded in hot water to loosen the skin; then, they are bathed in a lye solution, which digests the albedo and membranes.'

I'm very partial to a tinned mandarin but that's quite off-putting.

Well that sounds healthy. Crossing them off the list!

I'm not sure I want to tell him that, he'll be down the rabbit hole in no time!

I watched a video about this. It was quite interesting.

I seem to remember that hydrochloric acid was used to get the white bits off after the peeling.

I may be thinking of grapefruit actually.

Well he SHOULD be worried! Does he not realise how many families up and down the country are now either debating the fate of mandarins, or fancying some with fresh cream (and they don’t have any!!!!)?
