Not technically blood oranges, but…

Ok, this is not a normal post for me! But I have to know if anyone has seen anything like this before!

I bought a bag of oranges to feed Dekker non-stop so he gets over his cold faster. I wasn’t sure if he’d like them, since Christmas oranges are so much sweeter, but he wolfed them down no problem. So I bought another bag. What I found inside lokoks like this:

The first time we saw it, we threw the orange out, but the next one was the same, and the next one.

We finally got brave and tasted them, and they taste exactly the same. But I’m kind of sketched out!!! Has anyone had this before in their random bag of oranges???

I have never seen anything like that. Sleep with one eye open; they may rise up and attack you in the night. Or call the grocery store and ask somebody in produce.
