Kumquats

So we had a tree that had a small orange fruit that we knew was edible and i think we made jam once or twice but people are always getting them mixed up with another fruit. Loquat is the fruit we had and they are small like a grape tomato bit they are fuzzy like a peach. They are often grown ornamentaly. People like to call them kumquats which is another fruit entirely. They look like an orange only shaped like a grape tomato. They can be eaten whole. I found some nice looking ones at the grocery store and wanted to take some pictures.
I read that back-lighting is great for brightening up the citrus slices and the one in the middle really does get a glow from the light coming in the window.
