How can you be a mandarin an an orange at the same time, all these years peeling mandarin and drinking orange juice has been a lie? and google told me that the translation of mandarina is tangerine but now you tell me that tangerine and mandarin are two different thing but it's okay to call mandarin an orange.
Or is it they color? I don't care anymore, I just want to go home.
I miss the old days, they played basketball and we were all like "yeah that's basketball, alright" and we were happy

If it helps, it looks like while "Mandarin Orange" is a popular descriptor, to a botanist, a Mandarin isn't actually an Orange, but is a cousin of the orange, and tangerines are a subgroup of mandarins.
So it depends on your definition and whether you're talking about breeds by ancestry or just popular terminology.
Regardless, you can totally peel an orange by hand. ;p
That's it, I'm done debating citris fruit species here, although I might buy an orange later to eat it by hand and report back the experience. ;p
