Cuties in my local store? I saw clementines at the store the other day, but haven't seen Cuties yet. May still be too early, but I seem to recall them being available around Christmas time (I think I have recieved some in stockings) so it can't be long now right?

So, technically they are available, but I was at Winco earlier this week, and they didn't have them, although they have carried them the last couple of years. Someone let me know when they actually start seeing them in local stores.
HAHA! We Win. We bought Jason a bag of Cuties at Costco today! Nanner Nanner!
I would like a cutie in my stocking.
What the hell is a cutie???
Well....A Cutie is a 'hell' of a good mandarin orange that are available at this time of year. We most commonly buy them at Costco.
Cuties are a name brand of the fruit, and they are the best!!! They are super easy to peel, practically fall out of their skin. They are super sweet, and seedless (generally, in a box of them one or two might have seeds). In the past couple of years Winco has carried them in my area, but I was there this weekend and they still didn't have any. You have to watch out though, technically clementines are a kind of mandrin orange, but as you see on the chart Jennifer posted, they also have regular mandrins mid January to April, and they aren't nearly as good.
If you want to go to costco sometime and look for cuties. Cam and I would be willing to take you.
