Tesco are marketting what used to be normal sized oranges as "Large" and charging 45p each. Regular oranges are now the size of pool balls.

Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me needing more sleep?

My quest for oranges took me to Morrissons last week. The ones on offer there were a good size but yeilded little in the way of juice.

[additional]...and don't get me going on the price of tomatoes. 68p 86p 40p (!) now 90p. Make your ****ing minds up.)[/additional]

There's going to be a shortage soon, so they'll just hike up the price even more.

Blood oranges are nice atm.

Dont worry about the harvest. I'll have everything sorted next year.

But surely, "small ones are more juicy"
