One strawberry against one orange in the vitamin C standoff.

The winner in that one: The orange.

However, if you get 100 grams of strawberry and then 100 grams of orange then the strawberry has more vitamin C.

The orange has 53 mg per 100 grams and the strawberry has 57 mg per 100 grams. Not a big difference, but the strawberry has a bit more.
