White Grapefruit


We went shopping today and picked up a variety of citrus fruits I had yet to try. One of them was a white grapefruit. Until today I had no idea that a white grapefruit existed. I guess if the term pink grapefruit exists it should hint at another variety, but I just didn't clue in.
Trying one wasn't much of a challenge. I have grown up eating grapefruits, of the pink variety, and really like them. Using the tiny spoon is very enjoyable. So, since I already know what it tasted like (great) I figure I should have at least something to report on the experience. I know why a lot of people just cut their grapefruit in half and scoop out the tasty bits. Grapefruits are very hard to peel. I was glad I started with a nice serrated knife or it would have taken me over five minutes to peel the thing.
For future reference, if you don't want to just slice the thing in half, bring the right tools to peel your grapefruit.
VERDICT: Make, since it isn't quite a favourite but I do like it.
