What's the oil in the orange peel?



orange

If you look at the orange peel, it's shiny as if it's oiled.

It's slippery because I actually touched it.

Is it because I applied something?

Or is it originally orange?

If you applied something, what is this ingredient?

Not only orange, but also tangerines, so it's shiny and shiny.
This material is called liquid paraffin.
It's used to make it look good and to extend the shelf life.
It's not too toxic, but it's better not to eat it.

The exceptionally glossy fruit is coated with a wax called liquid paraffin, or a coating agent.

Wax coating is mainly done on apples, tangerines, oranges, and lemons, but liquid paraffin is not digested or absorbed in the body, so it can cause abdominal pain and diarrhea, and reduce the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamins A, D, and E.
