How high were you when you picked up a grapefruit and thought it was an orange?

Eh hello......stop pronouncing the "G", it's silent! D'uh!!!

Kiera

I buy them, they're yum

mackg

My father used to have one every morning as part of his breakfast

Were you not a little alarmed by the expense of your orange (grapefruit) when at the counter buying it?

Halve it, sprinkle with sugar and salt and put under hot grill. Good eats.

I think grapefruit contains Quercertin<sp?> or some stuff, an antioxidant.

Grapefruit's full of Spermidine!

Don't be bitter about your mistake, that's just sour grapes.

Grapefruit is the orange of kings.

Capt'n Midnight

cut a grapefuit in half and slice it up, sprinke sugar on it and have for breakfast the next day

and unsweetened grapefruit juice rocks




it's nearly worth it when you find someone complaining about the big juicy oranges in the fridge , it was a real LOL moment , a peeled grapefruit with one bite out of it

Grapefruit is one of the few fruits I like so much I'd shove my unit in it.

It was a fad diet for a while among overweight ladies. You can get 3 types of Grapefruit here Yellow, Red and Pink,

It'll get you higher for longer if you're into that sort of thing.

I had a red one once, very nice and sweet. Pink ones are a bit bitter, but not as bad as yellow.

Grapefruits are horrible, they're like really, really bitter oranges.

Like eating a manky old orange thats been marinading in vinegar for a couple of weeks.

i love the one kilo tin of lustre grapefruit for a late evening snack, oh i know it's going to clean me out but i just love the bitter/sweet tang of it and the texture of it as it breaks apart in my mouth.

but as for things like oranges or orange juice, or jesus christ- cranberry juice! WHOA!!! frickin head blowing, face twisting, even thinking about the taste makes me squirm!

Princess Peach

Loathe it with a passion! Wish I could rid the world of it.

All grapefruit varities aren't created equally. You may want to look into Pink Grapefruit as it tends to be a bit sweeter than the Yellow variety.

Grapefruit is my favourite fruit, and the only one I eat regularly. Half of one every morning, as well as a glass of Tropicana grapefruit juice. Mostly eat it as it is, but it's very nice with a little sugar and cinnamon sprinkled on top:)

It depends on a few factors such as the type and amount of sugar and how much sugar you eat over the course of the day.

Balance and ****.

Reminds me of lettuce. It's crap.

I remember getting grapefruit when I was in the gaeltacht. You had your dinner everyday, looking forward to dessert cos it was something we rarely got at home. Then out comes this mini glass dish, similar to the thing the priest has the bread in at church, with half a grapefruit in it. Fcukin grapefruit!! Fair enough if you're a health conscious adult... not when you're 12 and hoping for Angel Delight... *shudders*
