Large Orange each
Our Large Oranges have that bright, glossy peel and a sweet, fragrant smell the moment you start to score the skin. Inside, the segments are juicy and bursting with classic orange sweetness, balanced by just enough acidity to keep things refreshing. As part of our Fresh Fruits selection, each orange is chosen for size and weight, both good indicators of how much juice is packed inside.

Storage Guide
Oranges keep well at room temperature for about a week, or up to two weeks in the fridge. Storing in a cool, dry place helps maintain juiciness for longer, especially in warmer weather.
How to Choose a Good Orange
Pick fruit that feels heavy for its size, a strong sign of juiciness, with firm, smooth skin and a fresh citrus scent. Avoid oranges with soft spots, mould, or overly thick, spongy peel.
Seasonal Availability
Oranges are typically at their best through the winter months.
Why Buy Fresh Fruits from Whole Foods Box
