I have run out of valencia oranges and all I've seen in the stores lately are the navel oranges. Are the valencia's out of season right now? :confused:
I need my OJ!

Wow, you are lucky to get them at that price. Do you know when they will be back in season?

Yeah, that must be why they doubled in price. I always thought their season was fall/winter for some reason, I guess not. I guess that's navel.

For the longest time my Whole Foods always had a big stock of the Valencia, organic and locally grown for 79cents a lb. Then I went shopping once and they jumped up to $1.49 a lb. only a week later. Now, I don't even see them there anymore. I miss them!
