3 - Tangerines
There are different types of tangerines but  the most well-known
are the Clementine and the Japanese Satsuma. 
The clergyman Pierre Clement crossed a mandarin and an 
orange and the result of this lucky crossing was a seedless mandarin
with a looser skin, making it easier to peel: the Clementine. 
The satsuma is a crossing from Japan.
Some of the best tangerines can easily be selected in the store because they 
have a strong and sweet smell. If you find such tangerines buy them, 
you will not be disappointed.
To learn more about tangerines:

Tangerines are great fruits to meet your "nine pieces of fruit a
day". They're handy 'pocket fruits'.

Tip: squeeze three oranges in the morning, have two tangerines in
the morning and three during the rest of the day. Eat one more piece of fruit 
(i.e a banana or a kiwi) and you've had your nine pieces of 
fresh fruits a day! Not that hard, is it?

4 - Great links
We have found the following interesting sites that you might want to take
a look at:

- Vegsource interactive. " The friendly vegetarian and vegan resource"

- Lycopene plays an important role as an antioxidant. The greatest sources
of lycopene are watermelon, tomato, red grapefruit and guava. Be sure to include these fruits in your "five to nine a day".

5 - Question of the month - Fruitarianism

Question: - "i've just recently been introduced to the concept of a 
fruitarian and would like to learn more about it."

Answer: -  "In a healthy diet the first step is to have five to nine 
pieces of fresh fruits a day. (try to buy organically grown).
If you want to go further you can become a vegetarian and 
after that a vegan. Very few people are real fruitarians, a lot of 
people eat grains and pasta besides fruit.

We think that being a fruitarian is healthy but bear in mind that it is a very difficult lifestyle to maintain. You have to eat about 4 to 6 kg's a day and it really depends on your current diet whether you are able to do it. You have to be a vegan for several years before you can start considering a fruitarian diet."
