Slowlycatchymonkey Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 I don't want to mislead anyone or start any arguments and seeing as almost all the replies mentioned the rear brake I gathered that it hit a nerve with a few people. Oh this lot will argue over the colour of an orange, I wouldn't worry about it Yep Hoggs is quite right, one minute you’ll be insinuating the other persons an idiot the next laughing your head off at their posts. Reminds me of fighting with my brothers (the blood relation type not the mc type from another thread) a quick fight followed by a pint.Anyway what type of orange are we talking that annoying bronzey orange that could be brown? If so count me in, let’s go.... Quote

someone Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 I realize I am now arguing the colour of oranges, but green ones are ripe too. In fact citrus fruits also stay ripe for as long as they remain on the tree, but cannot ripen after being picked.They only naturally turn orange when the weather turns colder. Then the chlorophyll, which gives the skin its green colour, dies off. As the weather warms up they can turn green again as they are replenished with chlorophyll.So the colour of an orange is really just a reflection on the climate it was grown in. Although because of the expectation of many people that oranges should have orange skins, exporters from tropical regions may treat them some way (exposed to gas, freezing, etc.) to kill off the chlorophyll and change the colour.The European words for the colour are named after the fruit.

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 You are arguing the colour of fruit and it’s most entertaining. So tell me my fruity oracle does the bitter flavour of green fruits that goes when they change colour only apply to oranges or would all fruits changes back to green? Quote
someone Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 A ripe green orange is just as sweet as an orange orange. Just as a bright orange seville orange will still be very bitter. It all depends on the variety, the conditions they are grown in, and how ripe they are. But yes, it applies to other citrus fruits and not just oranges. Lemons can be green, and limes can be yellow, and still taste as you would expect. Quote

someone Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 Banana number 4. Though I had my meds reduced at the start of the year because of high potassium, so now I rarely eat them as I do not want my lovely drugs taken away. Quote
SlowBusa Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 Banana #15But I seem to be the only one I know who likes them like that Quote
saundersr2810 Posted July 4, 2018 Author Posted July 4, 2018 Either number 1 when they are still a bit hard and crunchy or number 11. Quote

Hmm let’s think bananas or drugs, bananas or drugs... nope I don’t need to think about it!For me a 5 or 6, anyone who goes above 10 is just plain odd. Quote
geofferz Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 Banana number 4.

I bet you hang the bog roll tail to the wall too. Clearly 8 is perfect. Quote
bonio Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 4?! Wtf. I bet you hang the bog roll tail to the wall too. Clearly 8 is perfect.8 is close, but 7 is perfect. And before you argue back, 7 is also the perfect number, which proves my point. Quote

NeilM Posted July 5, 2018 Posted July 5, 2018 Can't we argue about something we can all come to a collective agreement on?Say.Politics or religion.... Quote
onesea Posted July 5, 2018 Posted July 5, 2018 Can't we argue about something we can all come to a collective agreement on?Say.Politics or religion.... We could never agree on those, don't you know the expression never discuss....I think to keep it current we should discuss something much more recent what about football I am sure we can all agree there. I mean it's obvious there is only one color team to support and you know supporting football the best fans never walk alone Quote
