What is that white stuff in between the orange peel and the orange?

It's called the "pith" and I hear it's full of fiber and good for you. Some people find it bitter though and some don't like the texture. It doesn't bother me much but at the same time I've been snacking on Oranges lately and I wanted to get rid of it. I feel it does distract from the taste of the orange segments.
Today I was pulling apart the sections of Cara Cara naval oranges and they taste like lovely little orange candies. Glorious!

Can orange peel be used interchangeably with orange zest?
Orange zest is made from orange peel. When you grate the rind of the orange, do not grate all the way to the white, you just want to grate the orange surface. Voila!! You have fresh orange zest. The zest of an orange is the very outter layer of the orange peel...just the orange part, not the white part. The easiest way to remove the zest without getting the bitter white part is to use an orange zester or a micro rasp (looks similar to a wood file). If you don't have an orange zester you can use the smallest holes on a box grater or cut the zest off with a paring knife. If using a paring knife, chop the peel as small as possible...now you have orange zest.
