(Oranges, Navel) Navel oranges derive their name from a navel-like (belly button) growth at the bottom
of the orange (top orange in photo). One of the nice features of this
delicious, sweet, eating orange is that it is seedless - just peel it and eat
the sections. Navel oranges are great for breakfast, a snack, or for
dessert. Choose navel oranges that are firm and "heavy" for their size.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
