Orange you glad...

A large percentage of oranges are now sold pre-packaged in the United States.

Consumers prefer picking up a bag of this much-loved fruit rather than picking out individual pieces of fruit and bagging it themselves. This is good news for packagers. While most pre-packaged oranges are sold in bags, some are contained in boxes, bins or reusable plastic. One citrus producer uses packages that feature Disney characters. Nemo, and other Disney stars decorate packages of clementines, navels and cara caras—making it a desirable selection for tots—and so too their moms and dads.
