A good way is to take the mikan, and roll it between you hand slightly squeezing it (not to hard ofcourse), this makes the outer peel loose and makes it easier to peel. I think this is a Dutch technique hahahaha. Eeew, thats a nasty way to peel a tangerine haha.

Unfortunately I don't know of any of those stores near where I live. I think I bought like 5kg for 500 yen my first year on JET...that was a great weekend. g dawg: No wonder I'm not married yet.

I've been doing it the wrong way all this time. Many thanks! Which reminds me, you wrote about your mikan habit in a previous post and how you buy cheap bags of them. I also eat many a day, and buy (and lug home) a 10 or 15 kg. carton for a couple of thousand yen at a neighborhood fruit and vegetable store. I haven't done a count, but I'm pretty sure it works out cheaper than buying them a bag at a time... Hey, it works! I’ve been doing it the wrong way all this time. Many thanks!

Note the letter the dropped peel most closely resembles, pick it up and drop it again. Make your final observation, and you now have the initials of your future wife's (or husband's) name.
