Market Report: Satsumas, Fremont tangerines and Page tangors square off in taste test

The farmers market in the heart of the Hollywood district in Los Angeles has a lively street scene with music, prepared foods and a large section for arts and crafts. But there's a serious farmers here amidst the hoopla, with dozens of farm stands filling two long blocks. I buy some broccoli and Chinese greens, some apples (including an Australian variety known as the Lady Williams) and a cherimoya, some Asian pears and lemons, and three colors of cauliflower.

I also buy four varieties of tangerines and mandarins, intending to submit them to a taste and "peelability" test. For "best of the bunch," it was a three-way tie.
