Gotta stave off scurvy, though lemons and limes are more effective.

Fun fact: the British Navy used to keep lime trees on board which is why British people are called limeys.

I think Marianas oranges taste the best, but submarine harvesting makes them prohibitively expensive.

Yeah nah, oranges are easily grown in Australia.

Going to plant an orange tree in my backyard this year.

Then I’ll have oranges, apples, lemons, peaches, cherries and figs

Citrus fruits have been grown as far north as the UK for 100s of years and climate change is making that even easier.

Whats_your_reasoning 19 points 6 days ago

Yes. I rewatched it recently and it’s still spot on.

Except that one line in that one episode where Lois yells at the boys, “Are you Aborigines?!” Which is… gross. The way she says it is hard to make out - I had no idea what she was saying when I first watched it. But it’s especially odd because it doesn’t match with the rest of her character to use ethnic terms as insults. Thankfully, that’s the only questionable “joke” I can recall in the whole series. Best not let it spoil a damn funny show.

Whats_your_reasoning 11 points 6 days ago

I can't speak for all, but I like her more as an adult. I can see her perspective better, and just how much she does and puts up with from her family (including her husband.) It absolutely all went over my head when I saw the show when I was a kid/teen (I was pretty much the same age as Malcolm throughout its original run), so it's been enlightening to see the show again and understand the characters more deeply.

M0oP0o 9 points 6 days ago

I assumed the same, but I saw an episode a few years ago when stuck in a hotel and I still hated her character. Does not help that a lot of the story lines have their basis on a character doing something unknowing that it will cause the issue the story then has to solve, and then having her more then other characters fill the part of making things bad or worse.

I never thought her character was "bad" or "evil" and the actress did a great job most of the time. I just found her character insufferable most of the time. Actually most of the characters have points where they are insufferable, and that might in retrospect be why the show holds up.

It is still good, so much so that they just put out a reunion special mini series last month which is well worth your time if you enjoyed the original run.

It’s expensive because urbanization, climate change, and citrus greening disease. We’re getting rid of farmland with sprawl, climate change is worsening storms and cold snaps that damage crops, and citrus greening disease is slowly killing the survivors.

Whatever is in the picture doesn't even look like cheap OJ from concentrate. Isn't it just a corn syrup solution with orange colouring, like your version of Fanta?

The jug in the picture looks like a Minute Maid jug from the time, which would probably be a from concentrate concoction. I think you may be thinking of Sunny D which is a much brighter yellow color and is essentially an orange colored sugar drink. Not from concentrate is sold here under brands like Simply.

Yep, you basically can't grow oranges in Florida anymore, or most citrus really. Every tree I planted ended up getting the blight. Only my potted lime tree that I kept in a screened area did OK and produced fruit.
