How do I figure out how many calories in a navel orange
Do I peel it first and weigh it?

    You could also weight the orange with peel and then weight the peel after and subtract the weight of the peel from the weight of the whole orange, but that seems unnecessarily complicated.

    I suppose if you like to eat the orange peel, go ahead and keep it on. Basically, weigh whatever you are going to eat.

    Strangely enough you can eat orange peel - think marmalade..........
