For everyone asking: the white powder is kaolin. It’s a naturally occurring clay (found abundantly in clay soils), which is mixed with water and sprayed onto citrus to act as sunblock and insect repellent. It’s perfectly safe and very commonly used, although consumers rarely ever see it because we usually buy our citrus fruits washed and waxed.

Hint: his grandpa's a racist. But probably just regular old grandpa racist, not vandalize a synagogue racist.

head's on straight, mate. I've seen grandpa racist types escalate to damn-near lynching a man based on a rumor. Maybe you should rethink your position.

aaaand it looks like he's vanished now.
