grapefruit

In our basket this week we received 2 grapefruit.  I’m not ashamed to say that I hogged both. I remember as a kid going to my grandparents place and watching my Aunt Sandee eat a grapefruit.  At that time I didn’t particularly care for the bitterness of grapefruit but my Aunt showed me a new way to eat it (new to me).  She sliced it in half and then took a knife and ran it between each segment.  Then she sprinkled the top with sugar.  Okay, okay so the sugar thing might not be good for me but it does help with the bitterness of the grapefruit.  I’ve heard of people sprinkling the top with salt but I haven’t been brave enough to try that. Grapefruit is high in Vitamins A & C.
