Good thing about orange other than vitamin C?

Like pineapple got all of orange benefit like: acidity, vitamin c, and sweetness.

You know what else pineapple have? Texture!!

Orange is just some sag of vitamin C. The only good orange is the one you can't even munch on like lime and lemon for cooking
Good oranges also have texture and firmness, with a balance of sour and sweet. I know fruit cultivars are a bitch and some of them aren't available everywhere so I can't blame you if you've never had a good orange.
Also in my possibly unpopular opinion, I like the white parts under the peel too.

Pineapples by themselves are gross.

Orange aren't even 100% on good scale, they are so inconsistent about being good.

YOU HAVE TO GACHA FOR IT, THAT'S HOW BAD ORANGE ARE!!! THEY ARE MID AT BEST!!!
You should try eating this then.

You may like one fruit over another, but there's a clue point: every fruit gets its flavour from the place it's cultivated, even if it's the same variety. Oranges from Valencia region taste completely different to those imported off-season from South Africa. In addition, depending on the month the sweetness varies. Here's how you can eat an orange:
  • Peel it with a knive and have it like you would eat an apple. It's the most similar way to having tangerines, but more juicy.
  • Turn them into juice and drink it, or mix it with other juices to create a unique flavour.
  • Specially if they're big, peel them, cut them in circular slices (imagine a doughnut), place them in a plate and spring cinnamon over them.
  • Peel them and cut them in bite-sized portions to use them in a chocolate fondue, just like you would do with other fruit like @BakedBanana .
  • Peel and cut them into bite-sized portions, then use them as a filler for chocolates (Valentine's idea).
  • Peel, cut and dry them to use them as a filling for all kind of sweets. Instead of drying, you can turn them into preserved fruit and make even sweeter desserts with them (for instance, part of the decoration of a cake).
  • The list can go on, but you have an idea now.

unfortunately i don't live in an area where we can grow citrus so all we have are those imported from elsewhere.
HOWEVER, cherries and blueberries (along with apples and blackberries) here are pretty peak
