Ugli fruit:

A variety of tangelo that got its name due of its unattractive appearance. It is uncertain whether it is a cross between a tangerine and grapefruit and even the pomelo, or if it has been crossed with a bitter orange. Its appearance does not have an affect on its juicy, seedless flesh. Its flesh is pink and even orange in color and mildly acidic. Ugli fruit's flavor is resemblance of both grapefruit and mandarin oranges but is sweeter than grapefruit.
