An orange is the fruit of an orange tree, of the genus Citrus?, especially Citrus sinensis and Citrus aurantium. It has a sweet-sour taste and is commonly peeled and eaten fresh, or squeezed for its juice. It has a thick bitter rind that is usually discarded, but can be used in cooking. The outer-most layer of the rind is called orange zest, and it has a similar flavor to the inner part of the orange. The white part of the rind is almost always discarded. Orange cultivation is a major business, and an important part of the economies of (among others) the US states of Florida and California, many Mediterranean countries and South Africa.
