I don't eat tangerines. Too many seeds. I do like Spanish clementines, though, & I don't mind the little stringy thingies. Just eat 'em right up.

the white stringy bits are a part of the pith which is the sour part of the skin on citrus

because they taste horrible! and it takes longer to eat, so you think you're eating more than you are, which helps when dieting. maybe the male conversation is so boring, the women around you feel the need to entertain themselves?

they should eat them.. the peel and pith of a tangerine (washed)

its a cure which will become well known soon.. like pomegranet

I used to even peel grapes!!!!
Now I'm older and life's getting too short -- so I just eat everything.....and I'm wiser too and I know that it's all good for your tummy system!

I don't. I chew the little segments up, get the juice & flesh out then spit the skin & white bits out...
