You'd have probably tasted sweet and bitter oranges; and these probably are oranges of different species. Sweet orange refers to Citrus sinensis while the bitter orange refers to Citrus aurantium but both are of the family Rutaceae. When eating oranges with children however, it doesn't matter sometimes whether the orange is sweet or bitter. Children can be rather creative and when they make an umbrella or a boat out of the orange peels, you'd most certainly find that sweet!
