Supermarket Mikan

Yesterday, I went to the supermarket to buy mikan.
There were orange and green mikan in the store.
Because my mother likes sweet mikan, I wanted to buy sweet ones.
I asked the shopkeeper, “Which one is sweet?”
The shopkeeper said, “The green mikan are very sweet.”
So, I bought three green mikan.
