Just what is Ugli friut? Is it new breed, or is it just new to the American market?
On the net some say it's a tangerine and grapfruit mix. While others say it's an orange and tangerine mix.

BTW: It is good,it tastes like all of the above, oranges, grapfruit and a tangerines.

i believe it can be either tangerine or mandarin orange, mixed with grapefruit.
