I was always taught that it’s what is on the inside that counts. That has never been truer than with

UGLI Fruit!

UGLI fruit is also known as the Jamaican Tangelo. This is because tangelos are a cross between a tangerine and a grapefruit. The UGLI Fruit is a cross between a tangerine, grapefruit, and a Seville orange which is grown in Jamaica! They are incredibly juicy and sweet and as long as 1 pallet lasts, we will have them just 2/3.00 with a 2¢ Fuel Saver per UGLI Fruit.
