Well, not exactly, in Sevilla, the orange trees there bear bitter oranges which are not eaten fresh. They are used in making marmalade & orange wine. .

Fun fact: Spanish speakers use the phrase “Eres mi media naranja” which translates to You are my half orange. It is the Spanish way of saying “my other half” or soulmate. .
