Concentration of vitamin C, approximated values:
* orange - 50 mg/100g
* lemon - 40 mg/100g
But these concentrations are variable and dependent on region, stage of ripening, cultivar, etc.
No. 100 grams of broccoli contains just over 89 milligrams of it, while the same mass of apple contains just over 4 milligrams of it. This is about 22 to 23 times the amount and is nowhere near the claimed 204 apples, as one apple is actually on average around 100 grams.

Most of us think of citrus fruits as being the best source of vitamin C. You'd get 60 mg/day from about 3/4 cup of Orange Juice. Although citrus fruits are a great source of vitamin C, other not so obvious foods contain vitamin C as well. Here are some ways to put vitamin C on your table.
Eat more broccoli. A 1/2-cup serving provides 45 mg of vitamin C.
Add a slice of tomato to your Sandwiches. A small tomato provides 25 mg of vitamin C.
Slice up a papaya or mango for dessert. Half a medium papaya or mango provides 95 mg of vitamin C.
Think peppers! Red, yellow, and orange peppers have about twice the vitamin C of green peppers.
More obscure vegetables, like kohlrabi and jicama, provide about 45 mg of vitamin C per half cup. Just grate each into a green salad.
Believe it or not, potatoes contain vitamin C, too! A small baked potato has 25 mg.
Kiwi fruit, the fuzzy little brown fruit with the deep green interior, has about 55 mg of vitamin C. Learn more at:

Papayas, a cup of strawberries and Kiwis all have more vitamin C levels in each of them than there would be in one orange. This site gives a breakdown.

The nutritional value of one raw red tomato is 27 calories. Tomatoes have 6 grams of carbs, 7mg of sodium, vitamin A and C, iron, and protein.
No, your citrus juices such as orange, grapefruit, lemon, lime will contain more Vitamin C, than many vegetable juices such as carrot or other vegetable juices. Tomato juice has more than most other vegetables, and is a good choice.
Hi I also wanted to know this. Found this answer on the net. Fresh is the way to go. "Orange juice is frequently bought as a frozen concentrate. Frozen, reconstituted orange juice has 78% and canned orange juice has 69% of the vitamin C found in fresh squeezed orange juice. Vitamin C is destroyed during the condensing process, but canning is even harder on vitamin C. It appears that fresh squeezed orange juice is better than either frozen concentrate or canned..."
