Orange

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

Oranges, bananas, and apples in 1893

An orange is a citrus fruit native to Earth. It is enveloped by an orange-colored rind or peel which is generally removed prior to consumption of the fruit. The juice of an orange is used to make a beverage called, aptly enough, orange juice.

When the USS Enterprise was bombarded by an energy beam after encountering a crystalline planet in 2269, Montgomery Scott reported that the starship's dilithium crystals were "unpeeling like the rind of an orange." (TAS: "The Terratin Incident")

While stranded in San Francisco of 1893, Data passed a street salesman, who sold fruits, including green and red apples, oranges, and bananas. (TNG: "Time's Arrow")
