因為對於剝橘子有很多五官上的想像，所以真的去買了一些來品嚐。握一顆橘子在手中，是整個饗宴的起端，先是芳香的嗅覺刺激，接下來是剝橘子皮，手指和水果皮的交纏，構成視覺、嗅覺、和觸覺的三奏曲，最後把橘子剝開，黃橙橙的汁液留得到處都是，每一口自然的酸酸甜甜，之前的所有步驟都是為了最後送進嘴中，至高的味覺享受。
I had kept imagining the moment of peeling an orange and the stimulation it would bring to my five senses, so I ended up buying some for the real experience. The feast begins with the fragrance the orange exudes when I hold the little orange ball in my hands. Next comes the excitement of peeling an orange. Apart from the visual stimulation, with my fingers lacing the thick yet juicy peel, I get to feel the orange through olfactory and tactile contact. Then inevitably the golden juice will drip and smear my hands and face. The climax lies in sending the beautiful fruit into my mouth for it to savor the sublime taste, which is a perfect mix of sour and sweet love.
生活的每一刻都是五味的綜合演出，吃橘子的當下即永恆。
Every instant in life is a beautiful combination of five senses. There is an everlastingness to the moment of eating an orange, and any other moment.
