And according to CNN's Danielle Wiener-Bronner, the 2022-2023 growing season yielded about 50% less oranges than the 2021-2022 growing season, totaling about 16 million 90-pound boxes of oranges.

As History Facts explained, you can trace the fruit's beginnings back to the Himalayas some 8 million years ago. From there, orange trees sprouted up through the Indian subcontinent and China.

Was the orange named because it was the color orange, or did the color get its name because of the fruit? Time to take a little language history lesson.

To find the best oranges, just look for firm, fresh-looking fruit. Forget the fruit bowl — oranges last longest in the fridge. A refrigerated orange will keep for about 3 to 4 weeks.
