A little off topic, but has anyone else noticed that most oranges taste like stinky mud for the last few years?

[-] FreeBooteR69@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

No but i have noticed they are a lot less juicy, heat waves are affecting crop quality big time.

Yeah. Occasionally I find a good batch bit oranges have not been good recently. You could put it down to climate change or maybe just going for higher yields over everything else.

I'm not sure, feels like there's something more off... Almost like there's some kind of blight or fungus that's taken over
