About Tangelo

A tangelo is a citrus fruit arising from a cross between a tangerine or mandarin and a pomelo or grapefruit. The name covers several cultivars rather than a single uniform fruit; examples differ in size, peel, and juiciness.

Tangelos are generally eaten fresh or juiced. Their peel is often relatively easy to remove, and the flesh is juicy with a sweet-tart citrus flavour, though cultivar and growing conditions affect these traits. They are sold whole and may also be encountered as juice.

Official national food-composition reference. The displayed food form is part of the estimate; cultivar, recipe, brand, processing and preparation can change values.
