orange slices

Halftime soccer snack

Orange slices are segments of orange fruit, cut or separated for eating.

The term also refers to a candy shaped like these segments—sugar-coated jellies with bright orange color and citrus flavor, common in candy dishes and often associated with old-fashioned sweets: Grandma always kept orange slices in a jar on the counter.
